‘Cavalia’ hosts sensory tour with Center for the Blind and Visually Impaired

A group from The Vista Center for the Blind and Visually Impaired experienced the first ever hands-on sensory tour of “Cavalia: A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horse” on Aug. 17 in San Jose. Students experienced “Cavalia” through a variety of senses including touch and sound. A spokesperson guided the group through activities that included grooming and feeding the horses, learning about horseshoes, sitting in a trick riding saddle and listening to a horse's heartbeat. The tour ended in the warm-up tent, where students and their chaperones stood in a circle while riders rode their steeds around the group. The students were able to feel the ground quake. Each participant was sent home with a horse of his or her very own – of the fuzzy, plush variety – and a used horseshoe from one of the show’s equine stars.

‘1776’: A moment in history that we sometimes take for granted

We all know how this story will end; we all know what an important piece of history was made with the glorious words of Thomas Jefferson. What some of us do not know is that the Declaration of Independence was not signed on July 4, and was ratified and completely signed months later. But none of this takes away from the delight of A.C.T.'s production of “1776”.
