Governors Arts Awards
Cultural Access Leadership Award

The Cultural Access Leadership Award, sponsored in partnership with Granite State Independent Living, recognizes a New Hampshire non-profit arts organization for practicing exemplary cultural access that includes and exceeds physical access. Programmatic access involves adapting the presentation of art-making, art exhibits, musical performances, and theatrical productions so that people with and without disabilities have the same opportunities to experience the arts, as audience and artists. The award celebrates sustained leadership in the arts that includes people with disabilities, their families, and their friends.
