SUMMARY:Opening Reception of spoken//unheard: A Disability Culture Activism Lab (DCAL) Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The Arts & Culture Project is excited to announce the opening reception of spoken//unheard: A Disability Culture Activism Lab (DCAL) Exhibition taking place at the Center for Mad Culture. \n\n\n\nspoken//unheard is a collaboration between Access Living’s art-therapist-in-training interns and consumers. spoken//unheard features the stories of disabled persons and disabled identities that\, though voiced\, are often silenced by a non-disabled world. This exhibition provides a space for those voices to be heard\, and for their stories to be given a physical presence.  \n\n\n\nThe spoken//unheard exhibition will run from May 10 to May 31\, 2024. The Center for Mad Culture is open by appointment.  \n\n\n\nAccess Information\n\n\n\nThe Center for Mad Culture is on the 4th floor in the Fine Arts Building. It is accessible by elevator.
