ACHF Arts Access
Overcoming barriers to accessing high-quality arts activities- The Barn theatre works hard to deliver high-quality arts opportunities to the community and with this new elevator it will ensure continued accessibility for all people, no matter their disability. The main way to find if the goal is achieved it by having the elevator installed. Once it is installed we will add a question to the volunteer participation feedback form if they used the elevator and if it made the building more accessible to them, friend, or family member.
Volunteers, staff, and the public have been greatly utilizing the elevator for moving between floors, hauling props and costumes, and accessing the various areas of the building.
