disAbility Film Festival
October 4 @ 6:30 pm
Optional!
The dis/ability film festival will be screened at Western Colorado University on Friday, October 4th, at 6:30 PM. Tickets are optional to purchase using the film freeway system and are used to benefit future festival operations. Our mission is to explore innovative strategies that promote inclusivity in classrooms, communities, workplaces, and other settings and to lift up human-centered stories of inclusivity through juried programming of top-tier films from around the world. We aim to increase awareness about the human-centered successes achieved when creating inclusive environments in education, communities, and workplaces. We acknowledge that issues related to social justice exist, specifically in a lack of accessible and equitable opportunities for people with disabilities. These films serve as a springboard for discussion, advocacy, and change, particularly in relation to inclusive education. We are particularly interested in films that showcase unique stories of inclusive initiatives, practices, efforts, and advocacy. Join us for our 5th year at Western Colorado University in the UC Theater!
