INTERNATIONAL DAY OF PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES

Community
Free but some workshops require tickets at $10
04 Dec 2022 - 04 Dec 2022
11:00 am - 5:00 pm
ART:DIS @ Bukit Merah (3779 Jalan Bukit Merah, #03-02 Community Hub, Singapore 159462)
Did you know International Day of Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) was first proclaimed in 1992 by the United Nations? Since then, this annual observance seeks to raise awareness about disability issues and mobilise support for the full and equal integration of PWDs into every aspect of political, social, economic and cultural life.

 

ART:DIS is proud to be part of this movement and together with SGEnable, in conjunction with the Enabling Lives Festival, we welcome one and all to experience what it’s like to learn and create in an inclusive and safe space regardless of abilities! From music and dance, to digital and visual arts, children and parents can participate in a variety of art workshops, get into the festive cheer at our Christmas bazaar and sing along at our carolling sessions!

 

Conducted by our artists with disabilities in collaboration with SPED-trained instructors, this event demonstrates how PWDS can reach for excellence, be relevant in society and are just like everyone else! This event promises much to see, do and hear so why wait – immerse yourself in our creative and inclusive world today by registering! For enquiries, please reach out to general@artdis.org.sg.
