    Massachusetts Cultural Council Launches Inclusive Design Initiative

    Posted Monday October 27 2014 at 10:10 pm

    The Massachusetts Cultural Council (MCC) is putting inclusive design at the center of its work with cultural organizations across the Commonwealth with the announcement of its new initiative called UP.

    The goal of UP is to support the growth and development of organizations that recognize the power of inclusive design to grow audiences and enhance cultural experiences for all, and that embrace inclusivity as core to their mission.  The intent is to generate transformational experiences for participants that will not only build capacity, but fuel insight and action.  UP will also reward innovation in order to recognize the great work being done in Massachusetts and to inspire organizations to do more.  UP recognizes that accessibility is and should be a work in progress.  UP is a direction, not a destination. UP is about process, not perfection.

    Learn more about UP at the MCC website.
