In shifting to their new gallery space, the folks at Tarq have had their minds on accessibility and opening the art space to a larger crowd. Apart from their Saturday summer workshops that begin this weekend and that invite an audience beyond art appreciators and gallery-hoppers, they’ve also made the space more accessible with ramps to the washroom, Braille signage and accessible entry points.
Siddhant Shah, access consultant and founder of Access for ALL, is currently working with the gallery to ensure accessibility requirements are met. Shah will also conduct the first workshop, a clay animation class for 10 to 15-year-olds. He tells us, “It’s nice that the gallery space is considering inclusion from its inception and not as an afterthought.”
