Arts & Disability Ireland will lead an in-person training session on disability equality tailored for the needs for arts organisations who want to include artists and audiences with disabilities in what they do. This half-day workshop in Wexford places disability firmly in the context of equality and rights, and covers topics including ways of thinking about disability, thinking about words, thinking about access, communication and participation. This training takes place on Wednesday, 13 December at 2pm in the National Opera House, Wexford, register here.
