Presented in partnership with VSA Arizona and the Sedona International Film Festival, the Arts Commission is offering two workshops on ADA compliance with Eileen Bagnall, Executive Director of VSA Arizona and ADA policy expert.
Two sessions will be offered:
11:00am – ADA Compliance: Know the Basics
An introduction to the basic concepts, principles and considerations of ADA compliance, ideal for individuals new to the field.
1:30pm – Beyond Compliance: Advancing ADA Practices
A more advanced exploration of best practices and next steps to move your organization to the next level of inclusivity. This session builds on the previous session, but may be attended on its own by those already familiar with the basics.
Each session is $6.00, or attend both for only $10.00.
Poetry Out Loud deadline to hold school competitions. If your school will be unable to meet this deadline, please contact Arizona Poetry Out Loud Coordinator Anastasia Freyermuth to make alternative arrangements at (602) 771-6529 or afreyermuth@azarts.gov.
