April 2015 A New Zealand Sign Language video, made by Deafradio’s Seeflow translation service for Arts Access Aotearoa, lets Deaf people know about some of the ways artists, performing arts companies, festivals, museums, galleries and venues can make the arts more accessible to Deaf people. Highlighting Arts For All , a practical guide to accessibility published by Arts Access Aotearoa, the video says that one in four New Zealanders 24 or 1. 1 million people were identified as disabled in the 2013 Census. New Zealand Sign Language is one of three official languages in this country, says Richard Benge, Executive Director, Arts Access Aotearoa. Signed videos such as this are a valuable way to connect with the Deaf community and let them know about sign interpreted arts and cultural events, he says.
Arts For All outlines the benefits of marketing the arts to people with access needs. They meet twice a year and share information, expertise and solutions to particular challenges. There are eight chapters in Arts For All , including chapters on getting started communications and marketing galleries and museums and live performance. The guide also includes information about using New Zealand Sign Language interpreters to interpret arts events, including museum and gallery exhibition tours.
Auckland Lorraine McQuigg mentions the sign interpreted shows provided by Auckland Live.
