  REWIND - Strategies for _Integration - A training seminar presented by Accessible Arts Inc - 1992 - reads, in part "Accessible Ans Inc. is an organisation which encourages and promotes the development of opponunities for people with disabilities to have access to and participation in all creative artforms. Accessible Arts began, in 1985, as an arts project for people with disabilities at Community Activities Network. In 1989 Accessible Arts became an independent, non-profit organisation incorporated as an Association. During 1990 Accessible Arts was financially supported by the State and Federal Governments to establish a statewide service for people with disabilities. The change from activities project to a statewide service has been significant. The organisation has compiled a state profile on what art facilities are available to people with disabilities in New South Wales; provides a consultancy service for artists, people with disabilities, disability services and arts organisations; assists the general community to initiate their own art programs and projects through the establishment of regional networks; provides training programs in the area of art and disability; produces publications; and, acts as an advocacy/educational body for the promotion of access and equity in the arts. The Rewind Seminar was initiated after expressions of interest and concern were directed to Accessible Arts about the need for strategies to effectively involve people with disabilities in arts practice."
