The building served for some 40 years as the principal administrative offices for statewide services for the blind, as well as provided vocational training, an ophthalmological clinic, and a regional Braille and “talking machine books” libraries. The success of the school would not have been attainable without its significant associated with Lucian Louis Watts. Watts’ efforts and achievements in his life were addressing the social welfare of the blind population of the Commonwealth. Watts was acknowledged as a leader in demonstrating the ability of a state agency to deliver a wide range of services to blind adults and children. Watts was involved in the founding of state and national organizations for the blind, namely, the Virginia Association of Workers for the Blind (now Virginia Industries for the Blind), the Virginia Commission for the Blind (now the Virginia Department for the Blind and Vision Impaired), and the American Foundation for the Blind. His work influenced educational and training opportunities for blind Virginians for more than 30 years, and his legacy has continued to the present day.

I still collect wisdoms. I'm currently making a collection of "tactile wisdoms" - wise words that I transcribe into Braille. This is a Chinese wisdom: "Rather light a candle than complain about darkness."

The building served for some 40 years as the principal administrative offices for statewide services for the blind, as well as provided vocational training, an ophthalmological clinic, and a regional Braille and “talking machine books” libraries. The success of the school would not have been attainable without its significant associated with Lucian Louis Watts. Watts’ efforts and achievements in his life were addressing the social welfare of the blind population of the Commonwealth. Watts was acknowledged as a leader in demonstrating the ability of a state agency to deliver a wide range of services to blind adults and children. Watts was involved in the founding of state and national organizations for the blind, namely, the Virginia Association of Workers for the Blind (now Virginia Industries for the Blind), the Virginia Commission for the Blind (now the Virginia Department for the Blind and Vision Impaired), and the American Foundation for the Blind. His work influenced educational and training opportunities for blind Virginians for more than 30 years, and his legacy has continued to the present day.
