If you’re a fan of Accessible Arts, you might have guessed that this podcast is an exciting extension of our popular Access Ideas and Insights hybrid panel series. We’re keeping the bold conversations going, diving into fresh ideas and tackling big questions about access and inclusion across the arts and cultural sector.

Our guest speakers will include leading experts including artists with disability or who are d/Deaf, alongside cultural sector influencers from across Australia.

Episode 1: Accessible Curation

The first episode exploring Accessible Curation is now available to watch, listen to or read here. You can also access on Apple Podcasts, Sound Cloud and Spotify.

Learn from multidisciplinary artist Bailee Lobb (Aotearoa) and curator, writer and art historian Amanda Cachia (U.S.) as they share their different perspectives on access in the arts. Discover how artists and curators are embedding creative access into exhibitions and festivals and how these approaches are cultivating new, diverse audiences.

Access

Each episode is Auslan interpreted, captioned, accompanied by audio-described visuals, and released with a full transcript. Closed captions are available via our website and open captions on Spotify.

Developed in consultation with Macro Impact Consulting and experienced d/Deaf advisors, this series is designed to be as inclusive and accessible as possible, and we’ll keep evolving the access as we learn more. Accessible Arts acknowledges that access is a place of learning, so throughout the series we will continue to develop the access so that we can be a catalyst for change within the arts and cultural sector.

Future Episodes

We’ll be releasing new episodes monthly on Apple Podcasts, Sound Cloud and Spotify. You’ll also be able to listen and watch the Auslan videos via our website.

This podcast is proudly produced by Accessible Arts and Kiera Brew Kurec with sound design by Tralala Blip. Access consulting was provided by Macro Impact Consulting and our Advisory Group. We also thank our Auslan interpreters from Sweeney Interpreting.

This podcast series is proudly supported by the City of Sydney and Create NSW, the principal funding partner of Accessible Arts.
