Increasing Access to the Arts

NEFA works in partnership with the National Endowment for the Arts and the New England state arts agencies to promote accessibility in the arts through knowledge sharing and information exchange.

 

Accessibility Resources

 
National Endowment for the Arts
The Office for AccessAbility at the National Endowment for the Arts is the advocacy-technical assistance arm of the Arts Endowment to make the arts accessible for people with disabilities, older adults, veterans, and people living in institutions.
 
ADA Compliance and Technical Assistance State Resource Directories
Compiled by The National Arts and Disability Center, directories include listings of organizations and agencies that provide technical assistance regarding ADA and the Arts in each state.
 
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
The full text of the ADA statute as well as links to ADA-related resources online.
