Art Access

Art Access increases accessibility to the arts through opportunities for artists with disabilities and education for community and cultural organizations. 

Can you help us ensure the availability of accessibility training for cultural organizations? Our goal is to extend these trainings to cultural and non-cultural organizations throughout the country. Please help us continue this critical mission!

We have a $12,000 challenge grant. Please help us meet the match so we can continue to provide accessibility training and provide accessible art training for our local artists. Donate today to help us meet our goal!

THE ART ACCESS MISSION
Art Access increases accessibility to the arts through opportunities for artists with disabilities and education for community and cultural organizations. 

IACCESS FOR ALL
ART ACCESS has a strong commitment to inclusion. We serve a diverse population with and without disabilities. 

We offer services in the most integrated manner possible, appealing to our community’s broad demographic make-up. We strive to foster empathy and social intelligence for everyone by becoming engaged through the sharing of personal stories and experiences that are designed to increase community understanding. 

QUALITY OF LIFE IS IMPORTANT 
Art Access is focused on providing accessiblility in the arts and beyond. We strive to expand social knowledge, intelligence, awareness, sensitivity, competence and civility. In utilizing creative processes that focus on self-reflection and self-exploration, we encourage careful consideration of assumptions, beliefs, and biases that are embedded in every individual’s subconscious. ART ACCESS creates a safe space in which individuals can design, compose, and share their stories and self-identity, focusing on the universal human longing for belonging and what it means to feel understood. 

INCLUSIVITY FOR ALL
ART ACCESS programming focuses on accessible art education for K-12 students within schools and accessiblility for all individuals throughout society.  We offer programming to assist the community at large in understanding the importance of equitable access in all parts of our community.
