Description

This session will look at the guiding principles for accessibility outlined in the recent launch of AXIS Dance Company’s Access Guide to Presenting & Touring the Performing Arts. This invaluable online resource, available at no cost, addresses the urgent need for accessible performing arts spaces across the USA. Participants will gain essential insights and practical strategies to foster inclusivity for artists, venue staff, administrators, and audiences with diverse access needs. Developed in collaboration with leaders from the disability community and the performing arts sector, the guide offers a comprehensive perspective on how accessibility enriches the entire arts ecosystem, paving the way for a more equitable and welcoming
environment for all.
