The National Federation of the Blind of Maryland is the Maryland state affiliate of the National Federation of the Blind. We are changing what it means to be blind in Maryland! Find a local chapter or division. The National Federation of the Blind of Maryland knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.

The NFB of Maryland At Large Chapter Presents:

A Night at the Movies!

All the Light We Cannot See - Episode One!

In this series, the paths of blind French teenager Marie-Laure and German soldier Werner cross in occupied France, as the two try to survive the destruction and dangers of World War II.

Following the movie, guest speaker, Joe Stretchay, an Accessibility Consultant for Film and Television, who is blind, will talk about his interesting career and lead our discussion of the movie.

We request a donation of $12 to participate in the event, including the discussion of this movie, to benefit the At Large Chapter of the NFB of Maryland.
