Talking Information Center Starry Night Gala
June 6 @ 5:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Please join the Talking Information Center on Thursday, June 6th, from 5-9pm at the Indian Pond Country Club in Kingston to shine a light on the invaluable community of listeners, volunteers, and supporters we have created over the past 46 years.
This will be a night of dinner, dancing, fantastic auction items, recognition of the TIC stars, and a whole lot of celebration. We are so excited to shine a light on all TIC has accomplished these past 46 years and we hope you will join us!
Can’t attend? You will be missed. You can still support the effort by donating on a recurring or one time basis and./or registering for the online auction.
The Talking Information Center (TIC) is celebrating 46 years of providing reading services for the blind, low vision, and print impaired communities. With the help of over 200 volunteers, TIC broadcasts over 320 publications over our radio station each week so those who are blind, low vision or print impaired have access to the printed word. TIC provides a necessary service that allows our listeners to live informed and autonomous lives — providing access to the same information that sighted individuals enjoy.
TIC’s programming also combats isolation by providing human-voiced broadcasts of publications. Isolation has been classified as one of the largest health risks in the world, especially for seniors over the age of 65. The need for our programming became even more evident during the COVID-19 pandemic as we saw our listenership triple because listeners looked for a way to combat loneliness.
Thank you for supporting the Talking Information Center so we can continue to provide this vital service for another 46 years!
