Abstract	This article addresses ways that museums can strengthen programming for audiences who are blind or partially sighted. Through the development and study of a tour for people who are blind or partially sighted conducted at the Calouste Gulbenkian Museum -- Modern Collection, in Lisbon (Portugal), the author examines other possibilities of access that go beyond the physical and communicative access considering, namely, the importance of the aesthetic experience for this audience access an art work. She argues that aesthetic access is crucial to the reconfiguration of blindness in art museums, leading to a closer relationship between the people who are blind or partially sighted and visual arts.
