Accessible Arts / arts + disability NSW

AART.BOXX is an innovative arts initiative that provides a platform and a voice for young artists and creative thinkers with a disability. The project has been running for two years and is developing into a high profile art event. AART.BOXX 07 was highly successful when recently exhibited at the Utzon Room, Sydney Opera House, including for the first time, artist talks. Over 350 people attended the two-day exhibition. Accessible Arts is interested in hearing from budding artists, arts workers, curators, writers or people interested in pursing the arts to form a committee to drive and co-ordinate AART.BOXX 08. This opportunity is open to young people (under 30) with and without a disability and will provide hands on experience in coordinating this arts initiative. Next year AART.BOXX will be held at Tin Shed Gallery, Sydney from October 16 - November 8 2008.
