Engaging disabled artists and organising public events to promote crip art
The Crip Art Residency programme transforms disability experience into artistic creation through discussions and ideation.
The residency programme aims to disprove the narrative "disability is a weakness" and to treat disability as a unique creative resource and theme, as well as re-present crip while expanding the spectrum of contemporary art. Different public events will be held to enhance public awareness of disability issues.
