Access isn’t just the ‘big, expensive’ things. You can have BSL, captions, step-free access and still find people aren’t showing up.
This taster looks at the small decisions that you may be overlooking that shape whether people can find, enter and stay at your event.
We’ll look at real examples from tone, placement to usability and how these details affect access in practice.
• 40-minute session
• Includes a short Q&A
• Practical, real-world examples throughout
You’ll leave with things you can actually change straight away!
Celina Loh is a deaf curator and Founder of In Transit Space CIC, a platform to learn about access in the arts through experimentation, dialogue and practice. Her work centres on care and relational approaches, examining how access can extend beyond protocol into lived, embodied processes. She approaches online and home-based contexts as active sites of making, rather than as secondary or supportive modes. She is particularly interested in how cultural difference shapes experiences of access, with her current research funded by British Art Network.
She was Project Manager at FRANK Fair Artist Pay, contributing to the development of tools supporting fair practice and Project Coordinator for London Sculpture Week. Celina has curated exhibitions internationally including Museum of the Home, HOME Manchester, Chelsea Space, Zabludowicz Collection (UK); Hin Bus Depot (Malaysia) and WEGO-ITN (Netherlands). Her work has been supported by Arts Council England, Fenton Arts Trust and British Council.
