 The Sargents Centre is a new multi-functional disability support centre in Blacktown. Officially opened on 30 November 2009, this new facility will house several disability services that operate in the area, including the Tuesday Night Club, Pecky’s Limited, Sunshine Homes and Independent Living for the Physically Disabled.  The Riverside Theatre run Workshops in the Arts for People with a Disability (WAPD) program offer weekly workshops in movement, music, dance and drama for people with disabilities.  The Powerhouse Discovery Centre is a state-of-the-art storage and preservation facility located in Castle Hill and houses about 50,000 objects from the Powerhouse Museum collection.  From April to September 2009, Accessible Arts undertook a scoping study of disability services in Western Sydney to determine their knowledge and use of arts centres in the region. The scoping study involved consulting with the disability sector through conducting a survey and compiling a database of disability service contacts in Western Sydney.  I Love You by Janet Diane is one of eleven projects that received the Accessible Arts Small Grants funding as a part of Don’t DIS My ABILITY. |
