Doing Disability Differently

This seminar brings together Danish artists, artisans, activists, practitioners, and scholars to challenge normative design practices and reimagine disability as a driving force for creativity. 

The event concludes at Copenhagen Contemporary, where we will enjoy the work of the collective Project Art Works. Admission is free for the entire event. Prior registration is required for the visit to Copenhagen Contemporary.

  The academy is accessible by public transport, with most official city buses being equipped for accessibility. However, the access ramp for entering the bus is not automatic, so assistance from the bus driver may be required. The auditorium is situated in a quiet area, served by a low-traffic road, free of loud buzzing sounds or other intrusive noises.

  The auditorium is located at the ground floor and it is accessible through free-level entrance (entrance J). An accessible restroom is located at the adjacent entrance (entrance K). The auditorium is primarily illuminated by natural light. During video presentations, windows will be obscured to enhance visual contrast on the screen.
