Project Everybody Celebrates Live
Date: December 3rd, 2018 12:00noon – 8:30PM
Location: Roundhouse Community Centre, 181 Roundhouse Mews, Vancouver (Across from Canada Line station)
Join us on December 3, 2018 as we wrap up Project EveryBODY 2018 with PEBcelebrateslive, Vancouver’s annual celebration of the International Day of Persons with Disabilities combined with The Film and Performing Arts Festival. It’s Vancouver’s FREE community celebration and with something for EveryBODY, this is a celebration you cannot miss!
Gathering dozens of local artists and drawing hundreds of people each year, PEBcelebrateslive is an important platform for emerging and established artists of diverse abilities to express their creative voice and share their stories with one another, and with the broader community. This is done in order to change common perceptions about abilities and disabilities.
(Note: More information will be available when the event gets closer.)
For more information please visit the Project Everybody website.

Relaxed performances at the Cultch
The Cultch is implementing accessible performances starting this fall. (i.e. “relaxed” performances for those with Autism, Tourette’s & other neurological conditions who cannot sit still & quiet for an hour or more). They have scheduled a relaxed show of the Panto on Dec 2, matinee.
Link to Accessibility information: https://thecultch.com/accessibility/
Normally, the Panto is already a kid-friendly show where they are encouraged to cheer & boo for characters & talk back to the stage. Each Panto is based on a classic fairy tale or kids’ story, this year it’s Wizard of Oz. It’s a really fun show for adults too, with lots of double entendres & local cultural references & spoofs of local characters, politicos etc.
