The US HUB/International Teaching Artists Collaborative* (ITAC) Global Working Group on Accessibility was formed in 2022, following a presentation by Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts at the ITAC Conference in Oslo, Norway. The working group came together to create resources for teaching artists, administrators, and organizations related to disability and accessible practice.The group presented at ITAC7 in New Zealand in 2024 and ITAC8 in Belgium in 2026. 

We are a group of disabled, neurodivergent, and non-disabled teaching artists and arts administrators (with and without disabilities) from USA, Singapore, UK, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, India, South Africa, Belgium, and Ghana. 

This project was convened by Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts as part of the ITAC US Hub in collaboration with Heather Marshall, ITAC Innovator.
