Accessible

UPCOMING PROGRAMS:

Stay tuned for announcements about upcoming MakeArt Accessible events!

MCD is dedicated to making our space and programs more accessible. We are actively creating an accessibility roadmap, assembling an advisory committee with members from the Disability community, and continuously learning what it means to do this work.

The Museum of Craft and Design partners with community allies to develop accessible, equitable, and inclusive experiences within and beyond the museum. Exhibition wall texts are translated into English, Spanish, Simplified Chinese, and Arabic. During the course of each exhibition, visual descriptions are developed to accompany select objects. Mobile MakeArt brings accessibility beyond the museum walls in the form of tactile art classes, bilingual program facilitation, and translated MakeArt Kits.

If you are interested in getting involved, please contact Marie Deininger at mdeininger@sfmcd.org | 415-773-0303 extension 310.
