Maybe it's my eyes but...

if organizations want me to come to their special events they should make the invitations easy to read. Ok, maybe my old lady grump is coming our her but I'm a little frustrated. In the last week I have received two mailings from the Fort Wayne Museum of Art that I find almost impossible to read. Don't ger me wrong.  I like FWMoA. I am a member and have attended some of their special events over the years. I even bought several Christmas presents in their gift shop last year. But, when I attend their receptions and other events I can't help but notice that most of those in attendance are around my age which means that at least some of them may have the same vision problems I have.  The two invitations I mentioned above are hard for me to read because of the colors used on the postcards. Yellow and orange are pretty colors but not when the words I'm trying to read are printed in pale yellow on a bright orange background. The same for hot pink and chartreuse, pretty but not legible. My suggestion, use the pretty colors (I'm all for artistic effects) but print the message in black  Maybe I'll send them a letter. Yellow on white should get the message across.
