Early Leaders of Disability Arts In Australia

The practitioners on this page worked in Disability Arts / Arts and Disability in Australia in the 1970s and 1980s. They were instrumental in launching companies, programs, and projects - some of which continue to this day. Their arts practice and advocacy has been critical in creating platforms for self-representation, and addressing barriers to access.
