Accessibility as Inclusion
/Accessibility as Inclusion
From curation to practical application, how can visual art spaces enhance immersive experiences for all patrons? What are the latest trends and limitations in accessibility tools? How can curators both support and serve as advocates for accessibility in the visual arts? Speakers will discuss practices for integrating assistive technologies and other techniques that advance accessibility in the visual arts, ensuring galleries are welcoming and inclusive. Guests are encouraged to bring additional questions to pose to the speakers, to expand and enhance the conversation for everyone involved. After the event concludes, guests are welcome to continue the conversation and explore the gallery’s current exhibition.
