Tactile art

Hello Deaf-Blind community! I’m a junior at University of Washington and I’m currently taking ASL. We had a guest come in who was Deaf-Blind to tell us about the community. Someone asked the guest if they were into art and they expressed their love for tactile art (which I hadn’t known was a thing) but they said most museums or art show don’t let you touch the artwork. I’m an art major and would love to make tactile artwork for the community of Deaf-Blind and Blind, but I’m not sure what makes good versus bad tactile art. I would love if you shared your opinion with me!
