NATIONAL FEDERATION OF ART AND DISABILITY
Hello!
On behalf of many people who have some kind of
sensory disabilities, I would like to make a wish:
Remove all the barriers that prevent us from
the communication, the entertainment, the culture and the education.
Nowadays the culture, as we know it, suffers a transformation
because of processes and synergies
in which our society is immersed.
As a result of these changes, with help of entities and people,
with a strong commitment in the world of art and disability,
on 19th of January of 2013, in Madrid, starts
National Federation of Art and Disability.
An organization of national action,
enterprising character and above all, inclusive,
an associative nature, which is nonprofit.
I am Julian, I live in Faro and I am deaf,
but I would like to know you.
