Accessible

Inclusive Education Program
The Inclusive Education Program for general public audiences – including visitors with a disability, special interest groups and seniors groups – seek to:

• provide Gallery tours [such as heritage tours of the site and the collection, exhibition and garden tours] tailored to the needs and interests of the target audience.
• provide interactive Gallery tours using a range of interpretive strategies for visitors with special needs, including sensory tours for visitors with an intellectual disability and audio description for visitors with a vision impairment.
• provide access to the purpose-built studio spaces for regional disabilities groups to deliver self-tutored [facilitated by the staff of the disabilities service] art making workshops.
• offer access to art making workshops, delivered by specialist tutors in a range of art-making media.
• facilitate a yearly event/workshop for International Day for People with Disabilities to celebrate diversity while offering authentic cultural experiences tailored for visitors with a disability.
