<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Reviewing your site/application for accessibility is the main component of this meet-up and we all learn from such reviews.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<h2>Topic 2: Accessibility of Sports Media and Museum Artwork/Artifacts<o:p></o:p></h2>
<h2><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">An industrial design student at UW and his team will share about two projects they are working on. One project aims to make sports media more accessible for those with visually
impairments through a touch-based device. The second project focuses on increasing access to museum artwork and artifacts primarily for those with visual impairments. They will be sharing their projects with us and seeking for accessibility advice.</span><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></h2>

<h2>About Monthly Web Accessibility/Usability Meet-up<o:p></o:p></h2>
<p style="margin:0in"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">Our meetings usually consist of two 30 minute segments. The first 30 minutes of our meetings are dedicated to casually reviewing your projects. This generally includes lots of hands on testing
and code review. If you are working on a project and would like to get accessibility feedback from your peers, please let us know and we will add it to the agenda. We always encourage you to bring your own sites and topics, as it is a great learning experience
for everyone.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin:0in"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">Then for the last half of the meeting we have some topics we would like to bring to you to discuss, although we may not have time to cover all of them in depth.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
