The annual Leadership Exchange in the Arts and Disability (LEAD) conference has been announced for 21 – 24 August in Boston, USA, bringing together people whose common goal is to create cultural arts programs that are inclusive of people with disabilities and seniors.

The conference features a number of educational seminars, with highlights including workshops on live and scripted captioning, tips, tools and techniques for effective staff training, website accessibility consultations and programming for people with autism and sensory impairment.

The LEAD network, established in 2000 by a small group of arts administrators, has grown into a widespread network that shares knowledge and explores practical methods to implement accessibility in the arts.
