Increasing access for people with a disability
NSW Ageing, Disability & Home Care, Department of Human Services NSW, and The Festivalists present the 2nd Annual AAA Film Festival - NSW’s first fully accessible travelling film festival as part of the Don't DIS my Ability 2009 Campaign. The festival presents a series of screenings and events across NSW, in November and early December each year. AAAFF will visit venues across NSW from November 16th to December 3rd 2009. The event will feature FREE screenings of acclaimed Australian films, which will be made accessible to people with a disability.
The touring festival will visit Castle Hill, North Rocks, Griffith, Wagga Wagga and Orange, finishing its run at Sydney’s Dendy Opera Quays on December 3rd 2009 to mark International Day of People with a Disability. The Sydney screenings will run alongside a panel discussion on the subject of increasing access to film and festivals for people with a disability.
