when am I ever gonna be equal in the community?” – Judith Huemann

VISUAL ACCESS
All text on our website is plain text, in accessible font styes, and, to the best of our knowledge, accessible for screen readers. We are in the process of converting our media posts to image descriptive and alt-text. We are also installing audio descriptive hand-held guides for our permanent collection gallery at McDowell Arts Council. We hope to expand this access to all gallery shows. |
VISUAL ACCESS
Written descriptors at MACA are printed in size 14 font or greater in plain font text. |
COGNITIVE ACCESS
We continually strive to build programming that ensures access to the widest range of people possible. Each person is an individual and experiences the arts as an individual. If within our ability to do so, let us know how we can make your visit fun and safe for you. |
PARKING
We are at the mercy of Downtown Parking, which is mostly (free 2 hour) parallel parking on Main St. There is a cut curb with ramped access to the sidewalk directly in front of MACA. There is a free public parking lot two blocks North of MACA, another behind our building beside Foam & Fabric, and a third at the Marion Tailgate Market. |
