Breaking Barriers: A Cultural Accessibility Project is a partnership between Art Access and the Utah Division of Arts & Museums to provide disability accessibility training and mentorship to our state’s cultural institutions at no cost.

Workshop content focuses on accessibility needs for people with the following disabilities:

  • Deaf/Hard-of-Hearing/Deaf-Blind
  • Blind and Low Vision
  • Physical and Mobility
  • Neurodiverse and Sensory
  • Developmental
  • Learning

Organizations that participate in the Breaking Barriers program receive 12 hours of instruction provided by Art Access and UA&M staff. Through this work, participants develop accessibility plans that address how to make their physical sites and organizations more accessible to everyone.

All training will take place virtually.
