Access Directory of Cultural Facilities
Cultural venues in metropolitan Kansas City, in cooperation with Accessible Arts, Inc. and the National Cultural Access Initiative, are now able to offer patrons a comprehensive overview of accessibility to and within their facilities. As a result of accessibility surveys, information can now be reviewed by patrons of the arts as an aid for decisions about where to spend their leisure time. Surveys focus on physical features and on user-friendly accommodations for things such as phones, seating, signage, program notes, and audio/visual aids. Patrons can visit our web site to determine accommodation for disabilities--which enhance the usability for all persons.
The Cultural Access Initiative survey is intended to be a friendly, helpful marketing tool for cultural venues. Site surveys are conducted by teams of three trained surveyors, along with a facility representative. Each team includes one or more persons with disabilities to maximize insight and effectiveness. Following the survey, a report is provided to the facility management and a free listing is provided on this web site. Cultural facilities wishing to have their site surveyed may contact Accessible Arts, Inc. at 913/281-1133 or by link to e-mail: accarts@accessiblearts.org
