Last Batch of #PatientNoMore Camera Booth Selfies

Visitor — Wed, 17 Feb 2016 17:57:37 +0000

The Longmore Institute’s “Patient No More” exhibit celebrates the accomplishments that the disability rights movement has achieved, but we are also eager to draw attention to the ongoing social justice work that is still being fought for. We asked attendees to the Patient No More exhibit to write their “I’m #PatientNoMore” statements, and then take a selfie. Here’s our last batch! Click on a photo to see an enlarged version.

We have really enjoyed hearing what makes all of us "Patient No More" and although the exhibit is closed for now, the dialogue continues! Thank you to everyone that participated.

Superfest 2015: A Two-Day Sold Out Success!

Visitor — Tue, 15 Dec 2015 21:43:02 +0000

For 2015, we expanded Superfest to two days, two venues, and two sides of the Bay: November 14 (at the Magnes Collection in Berkeley) and Novemeber 15 (at the Contemporary Jewish Museum in San Francisco). Both were sold-out! We screened ten films from five different countries, all with audio description and captioning. And most exciting of all, filmmakers from around the world joined us for lively discussions with the audience. Superfest attendees enjoy a laugh with Longmore Institute Director Cathy Kudlick (right). We extend our heart-felt thanks to everyone who participated in this important community event that celebrates the experiences and lives of people with disabilities! And thank you as well to our co-organizer the SF LightHouse for the Blind and Visually Impaired. Stay tuned for photos from Sunday at the Contemporary Jewish Museum, coming soon. The cast of "To Be or Not To Be" accepts their award.
