As a follow up to our previous Crucial Conversation series - which you can read here - these conversation are aimed at UK based disabled artists. They are time for reflection in accessible spaces where disability is a given. It's important to feel connected and to know that other people are having similar experiences and also to share tips for survival in divisive times. We'll share our findings on our website and in our Disability Arts Online Blog.
