Beyond Sight: A Legacy of Empowerment

“Beyond Sight” Subheading: “A Legacy of Empowerment” The background is a teal-toned collage of historical photographs related to blindness and low vision. On the left, two men are walking together—one with a cane—dressed in mid-20th century clothing. On the right, there is a person using a white cane walking near a sign that reads: “The Sight Center” The design blends old black-and-white photos with a modern teal overlay, giving it a sense of history and continuity. The bold, white and yellow lettering of the title stands out against the muted background, emphasizing the theme of empowerment and progress over time.The Sight Center of Northwest Ohio is proud to share our new documentary, Beyond Sight: A Legacy of Empowerment. Produced by WGTE Public Media, and featured as part of their Toledo Stories series, this 30-minute film examines the impact of the organization originally founded in 1923 as the Toledo Society for the Blind. Beyond Sight tells a compelling story through the voices of clients, staff and others with unique perspectives.

After a fabulous World Premiere at the historic Maumee Indoor Theater and the broadcast premiere on WGTE Public Media, the film is now available on demand in standard and audio described formats. Grab some popcorn and settle in for an inspirational journey through the years and through the lives of people who tell the story of living beyond sight!
