Please join us in support of International Color Blindness Awareness Month (September) and attend our EnChroma accessibility program launch on Saturday, September 17, 1 - 4 pm. 

EnChroma glasses help the color blind see an expanded range of colors more vibrantly, clearly and distinctly. At this event, individuals who experience color vision deficiencies or color blindness can try our EnChroma glasses and vividly experience the artworks on view in the museum's galleries. Not sure if you have color vision deficiencies? Members of the public will be able to test their color vision.

Here is a sample image from the Mulvane’s collection as it might appear to color-blind viewers.

Have questions about this new and exciting accessibility program? Please contact us at (785) 670 - 1124 or [email protected]

If education is the heart of the Mulvane Art Museum, exhibitions are its life-blood. They challenge, inspire, open minds, ignite ideas, and speak to us about the human endeavor. Select exhibitions and museum programs are supported by a National Endowment For The Humanities (NEH) #SHARP Grant.
