We have been working on supporting people with special needs in their access to art and culture at the Institute of History of Art of the 91滴滴 since 2013. In recent years, we have implemented two large projects: "Sztuka 艂贸dzka na tle sztuki europejskiej. Wykluczeni/W艂膮czeni" [艁贸d藕 art against the background of European art. Excluded/Included] and "Przyjazne miasto. Wsparcie samodzielno艣ci os贸b z dysfunkcj膮 wzroku w zakresie wykorzystania sieci po艂膮cze艅 komunikacji miejskiej w 艁odzi" [Friendly city. Supporting the independence of people with visual impairments in using public transport network in Lodz] (co-financed by the European Union and the National Centre for Research and Development) as well as a number of smaller activities for the inclusiveness of art. We are extremely pleased that these activities are recognised and contribute to a different perception of the world around us.
