THE BRAILLE DREIDEL

THE INVENTOR

BRAIDEL GAME DIRECTIONS

THE BRAILLE DREIDEL


ART AS RESPONSA  is known for 

innovation in art, design, and education. 


Marsha Plafkin founded ART AS RESPONSA with text-based educational art programs. 


Marsha worked as an educational consultant 

for the Skirball Cultural Center and Sinai 

Akiba Academy in Los Angeles.


She created The Braidel Game, featuring her design: The Braille Dreidel.


This sculpture was first made as a 'thank-you' and the use of Braille had purely symbolic meaning. 


As with all art, The Braille Dreidel has acquired layers of meaning overtime, some literal, others more nuanced and metaphorical. 


The Braidel Game is used to introduce students to Braille, to Jewish culture and under the best conditions, to themselves and those around them.
