Schedule of Events

Explore sensory landscapes across three days of live programming and presentations

The Haptic Horizons Art Symposium challenges traditional visual and audio-dominant approaches to art, opening up new possibilities for accessibility – especially for d/Deaf, disabled, and sensory-diverse artists and communities.

Together we aim to foster a more inclusive and accessible arts landscape, nurture allyship and mutual understanding, and experience new ways to feel art.
