Artist-2-Artist On-Demand: Creative and Innovative Use of Accessibility in the Arts with Dean Nash

ON-DEMAND WEBINAR: Artist-2-Artist panel discussion. 

RUNNING TIME: 1hr 5min.

Creative and Innovative Use of Accessibility in the Arts is a 90 minute panel conversation on how traditional modes of disability access can be used as innovative and creative compositional tools and how this shift in thinking is giving rise to an entirely new artistic voice.

Join Brand X Accessibility Coordinator Dean Nash, Artist Madeleine Little, Producer Michael Wrenn, and Audio Describer Emma Bedford in this relaxed, 90 minute virtual panel discussion on accessibility and creativity from the perspective of the disabled artist, the art business professional and the access provider. An insightful discussion between creatives doing amazing innovative things in access from three entirely different perspectives. 

Is this webinar for me? 

This 90 minute panel discussion will dive into “accessibility” as an innovative and creative tool and is for anyone curious about creative access or disability access in the arts in general. If you're a practicing artist or producer looking to learn more about innovative access, if you’re an access provider looking to learn more about creative access, if you’re an audience member who relies on accessibility this is for you. If you work in access or you work in art or simply enjoy art, this is for you.
