#accessible event

Immediate Need: I will have to purchase the items needed for the Disability-Inclusive Family Fun Day (which is a free community event but accepts good-will donations as a service dog fundraiser and has a silent auction as a service dog fundraiser) out of my limited Social Security and the few hundred dollars I've managed to save up for the service dog by March 4th, as well as pay for the venue by that date, and I'm still hoping to get some business partners, financial donations, or donations of the items needed for the event before that date. Please donate or like/share this post if you're able to. Donate at https://zekesservicedogfun.wixsite.com/zekesfundraiser or the links listed on the site.

We accommodate for ALL queer women and recently won the Silver Attitude award for our viewing platforms, crew help, BSL interpreters and a range of facilities designed to enhance the festival experience.

 I'm  thinking a bunch about what it means to make a performance, event or the rest  of my work "accessible". It's a word that we throw around a lot –  yet many of us don’t stop to really consider what that means and why it is so  important. In reality, every single one of us has access needs – it’s just  some of our access needs are prioritized over others. What does access look  like for sober folks? People with physical disabilities? Deaf folks? Parents?  Fat folks? Low-income communities?
