You may have seen Jim Bemiller at Common Grounds, usually drinking coffee with an interesting crowd.
But, he’s never seen you. He is blind. Jim invites Icon viewers to his world on Friday evening.
His invitation is to “Eye Can!” It’s from 5 to 7 p.m., Friday, April 7, in the Rhodes State College, Lima, Science Building, Room 100.
The evening is a collaboration of three groups. One is the Starlight Club, Lima, a support group of visually impaired and blind persons sponsored by the Lions Club.
Other sponsors are Rhodes State College and the Toledo Sight Center.
On Apr. 6 at 6 p.m., join us in celebrating National Poetry Month with a “VoxPop” Poetry Reading. Guests may take turns reading one or more of their own original poems.
