Since the 1990s the IMA has continually improved accessibility for visitors; the initiative was a contributing factor to the museum receiving the National Medal for Museum and Library Service in 2009.[1] The IMA provides captioning on videos produced by the museum, large print binders for exhibits,[142] accessible seating and sign language interpretation in Tobias Theater, and wheelchair-accessible trails in 100 Acres.[143] The museum also maintains partnerships with the Indiana School for the Deaf and the Indiana School for the Blind.[4] In 1993 the IMA opened the Garden for Everyone, a wheelchair-accessible garden designed to emphasize multiple senses.
