    Event description

    Inspiring SA is delighted to offer this free professional development opportunity for those involved in science communication and science engagement. 

    In our Introduction to Disability Access workshop, we talk about what disability is, what access is, and what you can do to make your work more accessible. It’s an opportunity to ask frank questions, learn about terminology, and learn more about the exciting and creative disability community.

    Access2Arts aims to foster an inclusive community that develops, embraces and celebrates the unique talents, skills and perspectives of people who are d/Deaf or disabled. We support d/Deaf and disabled people in South Australia to get involved in the arts as audiences, participants, artists, arts workers and leaders, and we support arts and cultural organisations to become more inclusive and accessible.
