• "ARTAbility Conference"
  The national Disability and Arts Disadvantage and the Arts Australia (DADAA) committee was established in Melbourne, Victoria, in 1991, and – as described in the Access Arts Annual Report 1992 – at the inaugural meeting of this group in 1991, Access Arts offered to organise a conference for the group in 1992, with funding from the Queensland Performing Arts Trust, at the Queensland Cultural Centre - the Access Arts Annual Report 1992 says “Drawing on the experience of the Queensland ARTability conference of 1990 enabled Access Arts staff and members to be fully involved in the planning of the conference. It was a big success. Access Arts has also set up the Queensland DADAA network.”

  Reads, in part "This article is a reflection by the authors on the impact that their identities as disabled women have had on their ongoing music careers. Skinner and Kapuscinski-Evans make up two-thirds of the Australian crip-folk trio, the Bearbrass Asylum Orchestra (the term “crip” is a cultural reappropriation of “cripple”). The Bearbrass Asylum Orchestra is a band that performs as part of the Disability Music Scene in Melbourne, Australia, using folk music to portray their experiences as people with disabilities. In this article Skinner and Kapuscinski-Evans discuss the formation of and philosophy behind the band, as well as the impact that growing up as disabled women had on their musical education, careers, and influences."
