Welcoming Deaf and disabled visitors to your arts events: front of house accessibility workshop

Part of the new training series facilitated by Arts Access Aotearoa.

Learn how to provide an accessible, dignified and equitable events experience to all visitors, and gain more confidence in your abilities to meet the needs of Deaf and disabled people. For all levels of experience with accessibility in the arts, the session is ideal for theatre, venue and event staff, and anyone working in front of house and customer facing roles in the arts.

Explore topics of ableism and disability language and concepts, and dive into activities on managing scenarios such as meeting access needs, handling complaints, and solving access clashes and complex situations involving disability in performing arts events.

Leave the session with concrete knowledge you can bring back to your organisation, including sharable resources for casual staff and your wider team. Learn together with other arts organisations, to build stronger local networks and set the stage for developing collective action toward arts accessibility in your community.

Ongoing follow-up support is available to Arts For All Network members after the workshop, to embed your learnings. Check out the Arts For All Network, your arts accessibility resource available to all Kiwis.
