Wow!

It's always fantastic to see children and students working as a team to create something - I think this stall was a great hands-on idea, and it's fantastic that it included all artistic aspects for everyone to get involved...as well as the technical, marketing & budgeting side! Fab article!

Sounds like a fantastic discussion. People with disabilities can participate in the arts as part of expressive therapy, but only when opportunities are actually there. However I think that when art works well with technology we can enhance these activities, so the disabled are not, as you mentioned, classed as a separate group and still have the same open doors as everyone else. We need to be promoting increased access to the arts for all disabled artists and audiences, as much as we can :) Events like these are a brilliant way of informing, sharing, and spreading awareness of issues between disabled young people and the arts; I love what you've written, Tara!

Brilliantly written, love this!
I have loved Tracy Chapman's music since I was a little girl. Went and sang her song 'Fast Car' the other day ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkObd75ej1c ) - if anyone could watch ;)
But yes, it's amazing how her song-writing skills so strongly depict the world around us. The depths of her words have had a long-lasting effect on society, and I really hope people continue to love her music for eras to come.
