Accentuate is now on Bluesky! 🎉 We create and deliver projects that break new ground for D/deaf, disabled and neurodivergent people in the cultural sector. Connect with us at https://t.co/Obzn5HWyW6 for updates on our Curating Visibility project and beyond.

15 years ago today, on International Day of Disabled People @ScreenSouth launched @AccentuateUK. Established for the South East by Legacy Trust, in the lead up to 2012 Paralympic Games, we have now grown from a regional programme to one with a national remit.

#CuratingVisibility has a focus on digital innovation, and we’re seeking D/deaf, disabled, or neurodivergent fellows who are passionate about how digital technologies like VR, AR, and Immersive Sound can bring museum collections and stories to life. Apply now via our pinned post!

To coincide with a major Vanessa Bell exhibition at @MK_Gallery, @CharlestonTrust is displaying portraits of her by Duncan Grant from now to 23 Feb, 2025 🎨 Check it out at Charleston, a historical farmhouse/art hub and one of our #CuratingVisibility Fellowship host museums.

Very late to the party but I had a wonderful time at the @Curating4Change celebration event last week 🥰 So exciting to see so many wonderful people I’ve worked with & to get to show off the display I curated with a 360 tour! What an incredible journey it’s been 💞💞

We wanted to say a big thank you to all of our guests, Fellows and colleagues for joining us at our Celebration Event on 2nd May. We had a truly incredible evening celebrating Curating for Change and Curating Visibility. Here’s sneak peeks of the evening - more images to come!

Enjoyed a night out @I_W_M to celebrate the work of @Curating4Change which is helping museums reinterpret their collections & become inclusive of D/Deaf, disabled & neurodivergent stories & storytellers. Congrats to @AppleyardFox for the successful delivery of this great project

We had a fabulous evening yesterday celebrating @Curating4Change and launching Curating Visibility. Wonderful to have so much enthusiam and support for this work in the room.

Sunak: disabled people just need to get jobs! Us: are you ensuring employers are actually accessible? S: no. Us: making public transport accessible so we can get to work? S: no Us: ensuring there is an option to work from home in all possible cases? S: no

Unfortunately I couldn't be there yesterday but huge congratulations to @irissirendi on the official opening of her trail!

Well done Iris - what a wonderful launch. With talks from artist Lizzie Griffin and touch tours of the trail, it’s been great to learn more about the Liverpool Disability History Trail. Make sure to visit if you can! #disabilitytraillaunch @MuseumLiverpool @ScreenSouth
