What is ArtAccess?

ArtAccess initiatives at the Queens Museum provide programming for children, teens, and adults with disabilities and advance accessibility initiatives throughout the museum. Programs are designed based on participants’ needs and interests, promote social inclusion and self-determination, encourage experimentation and creative expression, and provide layers of multisensory experiences.
