The first tactile gallery in Slovenia, where visitors discover art through touch, opens on 21 March in the Mercator Centre in Kromberk.
 

An exhibition where touching is allowed? That’s exactly what The Art Beyond the Visible, the first tactile gallery in Slovene, is. The first part showcases examples of good practices from Slovenia and abroad, while the second is a contribution to accessibility. It’s an experiment—a dialogue between artists and users. Through group and individual sessions, artists explored the world of blindness and visual impairment, adapting their artworks to be experienced through touch. Art isn’t just for the chosen few—it can be for everyone.
