I have been to all of the museums here in Edinburgh, except the Queen's Gallery which has been closed for a royal wedding, but I will be headed that way soon now that the wedding is over. Research wise it was been good I have found some helpful information and have been able to go to some arts lectures. I will be going to a visual description tour later this week which should be a great experience for seeing the practicals of how something is run when catering for audiences with visual impairment. The one thing that I am finding quite difficult here is that a lot of the information I find is similar if not the same as the programs they had in London. It's still interesting and nice to know that these are good programs that are successful here as well.
I plan to go to the Edinburgh College of Art in the coming weeks in hopes of using their library and archives as well as possibly talking with some of their professors if they are still in town for the summer. At the end of this week the Edinburgh International Festival starts up so, not only will there be chaos across the city but there will be many new art venues to look into and new programs for the visually impaired to investigate.
