Charity Program
Art Senses Project
- July 2006
The Miami Design District based Solange Rabello Art Gallery has
created the project Art Senses, opening its doors for
the second time for this incredible opportunity to 
experience an art
environment for the children of Miami Lighthouse for the Blind
and Visually Impaired
Established in 1931 the Miami Lighthouse is the oldest and largest private agency in Florida to serve people of all ages who are blind or the visually impaired.
The children was hosted by the Fort Lauderdale based Brazilian artist Naza, who described each one of the artworks in a manner to help them sense and perceive a world so far inaccessible to most of the visually impaired. Naza talked about the artworks of herself, Pietrina Checcacci, Patricia Secco, sculptures of Brazilian Victor Brecheret Filho, wood panels made by the Brazilian artist Isabela Castello and others artworks prepared by Solange Rabello Gallery

Rabello, curator of the gallery was very enthusiastic about the project
and its social function. “ I have seen this kind
of initiative in all areas and I think of deep importance to grant this
children with this unique opportunity. Many of them told me it was their
first visit to an art gallery …Art brings emotions and has a special
way to touch these children’s hearts. Social responsibilities are
within reach of everyone. It only takes initiative and creativity”.
Art Senses is a Solange Rabello Art Gallery (www.solangerabello.com)
project and it aims to give sequence and to expand the visits to impaired
adults. The project forecasts specially designed workshops and other activities
for the next future
