Webinar: Accessibility and Heritage Buildings

About the Webinar:

Creating more accessibility in heritage buildings is an integral part to making sure that heritage is welcoming of everyone in our communities. This webinar provides an overview to increasing heritage building accessibility for organizations looking at embarking on this journey. Laura covers historic views of persons with disabilities, models and theories about disability, standards that are in place to provide a baseline, access audits and how to perform them, and resources that are available for heritage organizations.

About the Presenter:

Laura Saretsky completed her masters dissertation on accessibility in Heritage. As program manager at Heritage BC, her major responsibilities included administering grant programs, conducting economic impact surveys, supporting community advocacy, and developing relevant learning and education opportunities and programs.

As an organization of provincial scope, Heritage BC recognizes that its members, and the local history and heritage they seek to preserve, occupy the lands and territories of B.C.’s Indigenous peoples. Heritage BC asks its members and everyone working in the heritage sector to reflect on the places where they reside and work, and to respect the diversity of cultures and experiences that form the richness of our provincial heritage.
