Art Hub

Medium accessibility

Inaccessible building: Arthub is located in an old bank building and is not on level access, two heavy doors close together in a narrow entryway makes it very difficult to enter by myself. They are working on moving to a new location that is said to take more accessibility needs into mind.
Inaccessible residency programme: Applying to residencies and use of facilities here would mean that I would not have enough time to retain my current reduced working hours and could possibly alert that social benefit system that I have more working ability than I actually have and they would take away my right to benefits. Any critically thinking person is able to deduce that creating art and maintaining a day job, in administration or working on a computer does not require the same bodily abilities, however the social system does not view it the same way, and could in theory require me to work more hours than I am physically able to.
No communication of accessibility or inaccessible entrance
Lack of online alternatives to conferences and events: Providing an alternative to in person events, such as artist talks, social events etc.. would allow me to get a real benefit from this public institution when I am in too much pain or do not have the ability to leave my home.

Able to be quickly contacted by phone if I have any specific accessibility questions
Recently began exploring online resources: Although they do not provide extensive exhibition materials online they have recently started a podcast series that offers a good alternative to the many artists talk that they currently host.
