Web Accessibility in Three Acts

Monday, August 20th @ 6:00 pm
Ballard Public Library
5614 22nd Ave NW

Refresh Seattle has been putting together some great events this summer for web developers and designers, and that trend continues for August. On Monday, Matt May (developer and technologist for Adobe) will be presenting on Web Accessibilty. He’s actually breaking the hour down into three separate “mini talks”: 1) a brief overview of the subject, 2) the future of web accessiblity, and 3) accessibility hacks. After the event at the Ballard Library, everyone is heading over to The BalMar for drinks. Space is limited, so put your name on the list at Upcoming.org.
