Community Voices: Damon McLeese of Access Gallery
Damon McLeese, Executive Director of Access Gallery, will join Paul Donovan on Community Voices on Monday, October 13 at 4 p.m.
Access Gallery is an inclusive nonprofit organization that engages the community by opening doors to creative, educational and economic opportunities for people with disabilities to access, experience and benefit from the arts.
People with disabilities experience a 70% unemployment rate. Artists with disabilities are no exception and often face barriers to accessing training and career opportunities. Lack of economic opportunities is often a larger challenge than the actual disability.
Access Gallery serves aspiring artists who are serious about their art and are ready to commit to a career in the arts. The majority of their artists have a developmental or intellectual disability. Together, they create the systems and structures to transform talent into careers and income.
