Come celebrate the release of "Music of the NaAC," a new podcast by the National accessArts Centre, at containR Art Park in Inglewood!
We will kick off this end-of-summer party with performances by NaAC musicians Koby Sharp and Rachel Harding. A new 6-person group from the NaAC, Cat Fight, will perform their spoken word choir piece. The NaAC’s Dance Ensemble will also perform a new work! This piece is inspired by radio and its means of sharing information, such as podcasts and radio theatre, and asks what it means to ‘consume’ these forms of media.
For the rest of the afternoon, bring your best moves for a community dance party and soak in the sun! Snacks will also be available for purchase.
This project is funded by the City of Calgary with operational support from The Government of Canada, The Government of Alberta, Canada Council, Alberta Foundation for the Arts, and Calgary Arts Development.

The National accessArts Centre · Organization
The National accessArts Centre (NaAC) presented by TD, formerly known as the In-Definite Arts Society that was founded in 1975, was created in 2020 following the amalgamation of In-Definite Arts with its sister disability arts organizations Momo Movement and Artistic Expressions. As Canada’s first multidisciplinary disability arts company, the NaAC provides artistic training, creation, and exhibition/presentation opportunities for artists with developmental, physical, and acquired disabilities. The NaAC supports close to 400 Canadian artists living with developmental and/or physical disabilities through on-site studio supports and workshops, and an even broader community of Canadian artists with disabilities through immersive programs delivered online. The NaAC currently operates a multidisciplinary studio space in Calgary, and the Won Lee Community Arts Hub in Toronto.
