Nine To Noon - A podcast by RNZ - Thursdays
What does it take to make an arts festival truly inclusive? Creatif Kate knows, she's is one half of the creative force behind Wellington's Disabled Artists' Theatre or DAT - Festival, along with Susan Williams. It's into its third year, helping to showcase hearing or vision impaired, neuro-divergent or disabled performing artists, writers and filmmakers. The festival is on now until November 17. It was born out of the cancellation of Disability Pride Week - and is getting bigger each year, despite the squeeze on arts budgets.
