New online workshop helping arts and cultural organisations support people with disability

 A new online workshop is helping arts and cultural organisations improve how they connect with and support people with disability or who are Deaf, especially in relation to online content and services. The workshop is being delivered by Accessible Arts – NSW’s peak arts and disability organisation – which upskills up to 1000 people every year through its disability awareness training programs. The next online workshop is Wednesday 17 June at 10am. Another workshop is scheduled for Wednesday 15 July. Private and bespoke online training sessions can also be arranged.

 

In response to the COVID arts shutdown, the online Disability Confidence Training workshop has been updated to include lots of practical information about engaging online with audiences and staff in ways that improve access and inclusion. And there’s currently a 2-for-1 offer for workshop participants.

 

Accessible Arts CEO Kerry Comerford: “During this challenging time for NSW’s arts and cultural sector, many organisations are using the opportunity to upskill their team so they can provide more accessible and inclusive programming, services and infrastructure during and after the COVID crisis.
