Hi Cathy. I suggest contacting the theaters there that already have MoPix installations first to see if they might coordinate accessible film offerings, then move along to new locations that might install a system. I can work with you directly on this if you want to email me at access@wgbh.org - Mary

Media Access Group at WGBH Every so often I am privileged to describe scenes that just take my breath away. So it is with an upcoming Nature episode called "Wild Balkans": Thousands of swarming starlings form changing patterns in the sky. Think starbursts and ocean waves. Wow! - Jan (Describer)

Media Access Group at WGBH As we anticipate James Cameron's Avatar, we're reminded of the week 12 years ago when MoPix was new and installed in only one theater. We wondered how Titanic would open that Friday... would it be popular? How accessible filmgoing has grown-- this is our 751st MoPix title, we're in 370 theaters, including 3D auditoriu...ms. It's a joy for us to work on these movies, we hope you enjoy lots of movies this holiday season!

But I always knew Rear Window would be a hit!

Here's the link to a new publication from the Better Hearing Institute that offers resources for financial assistance for purchasing hearing aids for people of all ages.
