It becomes important to make the layout for clear to understand as well as making adjustments to images or videos to make it easier for those who need it. Specifically adding transcript for videos for those who are deaf, and adjusting colors to make text clear for those who may struggle with color. Making the exhibition accessible allows it to reach a wider audience.
