DID YOU KNOW? The  white cane with its current configuration was invented in Peoria, Illinois, CICBVI owns it, and we have it on display at the Peoria Riverfront Museum.  That’s something worth celebrating right? Read more about it here.

We are excited to celebrate National White Cane Safety Day at the Peoria Riverfront Museum on October 15, 2023 from 6:00pm – 9:00pm. Gilmore Auditorium doors open at 5:45 and cocktail hour is 6-7pm.
