Webinar Series: EnAbling Change

Have you always wanted to make your performances and operations more accessible, but are not sure where to start?

Orchestras Canada – in collaboration with Ontario Presents and Réseau Ontario, and in consultation with disability arts consultant Rachel Marks – is presenting six expert-led webinars titled EnAbling Change: Accessibility for the Performing Arts. Topics will include: An introduction to accessibility legislation (specifically, the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act); marketing; venues; programming (for performers, workers AND audiences); and community collaboration and partnerships.

The webinars are 2-hour long and each webinar will be augmented with an informal virtual Coffee Chat with experts. Interpretation options: French-English simultaneous interpretation, ASL, LSQ and closed captioning in English. Audio Description will be available for the March 29 session.

This project is generously funded by the Government of Ontario

Webinar Dates (Tuesdays, 1:30-3:30pm ET): February 8 & 22, March 8 & 29, April 19 and May 3, 2022.

Coffee chats follow each webinar on Fridays, 10:30-11:30am ET.
