SUMMARY:Access Advisory Committees: What Works and What Doesn’t
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a panel discussion about Access Advisory Committees for cultural organizations.  It is essential that cultural organizations listen to the disability community and learn from their expertise in order to best serve the community at large – and Access Advisory Committees are a popular way to do that. Hear from cultural administrators who have formed Access Advisory Committees and the experts who have served on them. What makes them successful? What makes them worth the time of the experts? What pitfalls should be avoided or ideas should be replicated?

SUMMARY:Introduction to Captioning
DESCRIPTION:Participants had an opportunity to learn about captioning from two prolific service providers in the Twin Cities who shared options for captioning live events and web videos via Open Captioning (seen by everyone on a digital LED unit\, projections\, supertitles\, etc.) or Closed Captioning (seen only by the user on devices such as smartphones). \nPresenters:\n \nLisa Richardson (RPR\, CRR\, CBC\, CCP) is Vice President of CART and Captioning Services for Paradigm Reporting & Captioning\, Inc.\, based in Minneapolis. She was the first person in Minnesota to provide broadcast captioning (1988) and CART captioning services (1990).  Lisa has provided CART and captioning services for a wide variety of people and venues\, including the Dalai Lama\, President Obama\, Vice President Biden\, Neil deGrasse Tyson\, Gopher football games\, MNUFC soccer team\, Minnesota Wild\, Minnesota Timberwolves\, Guthrie Theater\, Minnesota Orchestra\, Minnesota Fringe Festival\, Ordway and more. \n  \nHunter Gullickson is Accessibility Manager at the Guthrie Theater\, where he spearheads access programs such as American Sign Language interpretation\, audio description\, open captioning\, Braille publications and the T.O.P. financial access initiative.  He also looks beyond the performance experience\, striving to ensure that the Guthrie facility is welcoming to people of all abilities. Hunter’s influence reaches many local arts organizations by providing access equipment and consultations. He received the 2017 Sally Ordway Irvine Award in Accessibility. \nLisa Richardson                \nHunter Gullickson
