Nov. 6 & 14 at 825 Arts, Saint Paul | FREE or Pay What You Want

Access Granted is a joyful, affirming, celebratory space for folx with disabilities. This jam celebrates disability culture and creativity. Here we welcome improvisers, comedians, storytellers, and anyone interested in expanding their artistic expression. The goal of the event is to connect, learn improv games, and create a performance space that centers people with disabilities and our brilliance.

We’ll begin with a warm-up and rehearsal reserved for participants centering their needs and community building. Afterward, the doors will open for a public showcase where anyone is welcome to join in celebrating comedy created and led by artists with disabilities.

• 3:000 PM – 4:00 PM: Warm-up & rehearsal (for participants only)

• 4:00 PM – 5:00 PM: Public showcase (all welcome)

Come to play, come to watch—either way, you’re part of sustaining a stage where disabled artists claim their space, shape their stories, and redefine comedy on their own terms.

Facilitated by:
