About the workshop
Accessibility at festivals and in live music venues is still a challenge for many live music organizers. That is why Possibilize facilitates a workshop for representatives of music venues and festivals to try to break this misconception and help live music organizers in embracing accessibility. The Workshop encourages participants to see limitations as a springboard for creative solutions and possibilities. By fostering a deeper understanding of accessibility through exercises, personal stories and innovative models, the workshop highlights the importance of moving beyond compliance and towards inclusive, meaningful experiences for all.
Ronald Ligtenberg together with participants will explore real-life (in)accessibility experiences of two creators with visual impairment: Irma Jokštytė-Stanevičienė and Aurimas Papečkys.
