Embracing the Accessible Era
Embracing the Accessible Era was held by Accessible Arts on Wednesday 7 December 2005 to celebrate International Day of People with a Disability.
The professional development seminars provided examples of how to increase access for people with a disability to a venue, event or program in the short, medium and long term. Seminar papers on access to the arts from presentations given at the Accessible Arts Seminars 2005 are available for download.
