Community Co-Learning Workshops: Building (more) Accessible Arts Presentations

This series is presented by the Libby Leshgold Gallery and the ECU Writing Centre, in collaboration with grunt gallery.

More workshops will follow as we find out what folks want to learn (send us your suggestions at libby@ecuad.ca!) and as we develop more connections to Disability communities, knowledge and practices. The series is geared towards ECU staff, faculty and students, and open to the general public.

All workshops will be offered in hybrid formats, and will include ASL interpretation, auto-generated captions (online). We will also share the recorded workshops and transcripts for educational purposes.

We acknowledge the support of the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC).
