We all have individual access needs and particular ways that help us navigate the world through art, whether we’re checked into it or not. 2023 was the UMS’ first attempt at making our festival more accessible to people with disabilities, making it more accessible to everyone. This panel focused on accessibility for artists and the central question: What are our access needs, and how do we show up as our best selves? We explores performers' access needs and untangle what we all need to fully participate and perform at our best.
