Disability Dialogues are a casual, conversational gathering in which a facilitator gently guides a group discussion about the disabled experience. This includes sharing lived experience
around disability, resource sharing and peer-supported problem solving, grieving the body, navigating an ableist world, and much more. Discussion topics are decided by the attendees
curiosity and interest, and whatever comes up during the 1.5 hour span.
Entrance will close at 5:40, but guests may leave when they like.
Masks are required (unless your disability prevents it,) and provided.
