Maestra Music will host three workshops are designed to help professionals create more accessible rehearsal and performance spaces.

The series will launch with Access Broadway founder and Americans with Disabilities Act advisor Maria Porto leading a 90-minute workshop on Oct. 12. The session will include a summary of disability history in America and focus on barriers for musicians with disabilities on Broadway.

On Oct. 19, composer and music director Shane Dittmar will moderate a panel about disability representation among musicians on Broadway.

Finally, on Oct. 26, Co/Lab will lead a professional development workshop to help artistic leaders reexamine inclusivity in their own operations. Two Co/Lab teaching artists and two leaders (seasoned Co/Lab actors with developmental disabilities) will lead attendees through a conversation and activities around creating an inclusive environment tailored to neurodiversity.
