EASPD Knowledge Café: Breaking Barriers in the Arts
The aim of our next Knowledge Café on Arts is to explore the transformative potential of inclusive arts practices, delving into themes of accessibility, creativity, and cultural participation. Through the presentation of the Revelland project, we’ll discover how multisensory performances and research into festival accessibility are redefining inclusivity within music and cultural spaces. Revelland’s multisensory approach not only broadens participation but also exemplifies the arts’ potential to create shared, engaging experiences accessible to all.
The EASPD Member Forum on Arts and Culture will further highlight relevant projects that are expanding access in the arts, underscoring the power of inclusive arts as a tool for social connection and innovation. Join us as we bring together diverse perspectives to discuss how the arts can serve as a powerful platform for social inclusion, creativity, and shared experiences.
Automatic live transcription will be available.
