Another Braille Mezuzah

I posted a while back about a really cool Braille mezuzah we had been commissioned to make.  In the summer of 2009, a new building for the Association for the Blind was being completed and nearing dedication.  One of the major donors for the project was a Jewish couple.  As a recognition to their efforts and as a way to represent the building’s connection with the Jewish community, a representative from the local JCC Judaica shop contacted the Gary Rosenthal Collection with a proposition.  She wanted to know if it would be possible for us to create a Braille mezuzah.

We did create one for them.  It was a wonderful piece and much appreciated.  After experimenting with the method used - and finding new uses for it as well - the design has been refined and this new piece has been created, available for anyone who may be in need of this type of special piece.

If you are interested in this, or other Braille artwork, feel free to contact us at 301.493.5577.
