A PERMANENT AND INCLUSIVE EXHIBITION AT INAF ARCETRI ASTROPHYSICAL OBSERVATORY

Abstract

The INAF Arcetri Astrophysical Observatory recently inaugurated a permanent exhibition that has been designed in order to be inclusive also for blind and visually impaired people. The project built on previous activities at local, national and international levels and on newly designed exhibits, like the haptic planetarium dome. The exhibits, designed and tested with blind people, also proved to be attractive and useful for the general public visiting the Observatory.
