Accessible Arts / arts + disability NSW

A disability service in the eastern suburbs of Sydney has registered more than half of its Day Service staff to attend the Arts Activated National Conference at the Powerhouse Museum in March 2010. Eleven staff from Miroma will attend the conference as part of their staff development and general training.

Registrations are open and filling fast for the Arts Activated National Conference – a conference offering workshops, papers and presentations from across the nation and overseas, to provoke  debate  and discussion about ‘excellence’ in arts and disability.

Beyond Technique | Searching for Authenticity, a series of dance masterclasses in 2010, is a unique practical professional development opportunity for NSW artists to experience inclusive dance practice.

With the draft program now online, Accessible Arts presents the second national Arts Activated National Conference: Arts – Access – Excellence, bringing together leading thinkers, artists, advocates, practitioners and producers to create dialogue about and showcase examples of excellence in arts and disability.

Accessible Arts is inviting submissions for proposals to present at the 2010 Arts Activated Conference, 25 & 26 March 2010, at the Powerhouse Museum Sydney. The conference aims to be interactive and will include creative presentations that incorporate participatory elements.
