Formed in 2021 by Ysabelle Vautour the NB Disability Art Collective is a group of New Brunswick artists with lived experience of disability (this of course includes Deaf, Mad, Chronically Ill and Nerodivergent folks ) interested in Disability Arts and advocating for accessibility to arts. The collective has an online showcase and provides a place for discussion in disability arts as well as community and mentorship.

We also think that there is a lot of wisdom in celebrating disability culture through the arts.

We are a culture that is spread out and divided so it’s good to have a central place to make connections and share resources like learning more about and creating an access rider 

Did you know you can hire a grant writer that artsnb can pay for?

New Brunswick has the 2nd largest population of persons with disabilities in Canada, around 26% of the population of NB, compared to the national average of 22%.
It is the largest minority group where any one of us can become a member of it at any time. Let's crip the scrip and share your story today and show people the fun and wisdom of disability culture.
