I am passing on the information below as a service.  Please contact the

>participate in a one-week residency to be held at the University of 
>California Humanities Research Institute (UCHRI) at UC Irvine from June 
>12-20, 2012.  Six artists will be invited to work in conversation with

>  We are interested in expanding notions and strategies for works that 
>are multiply-accessible.
>
>Leading scholars in disability studies will offer daily workshops on 
>disability and access in the arts for a small group of graduate student 
>participants. These workshops are optional for artists in residence. 
>The week will culminate in a final day of informal public 
>presentations, aimed to share findings in the form of discussion, 
>sketches and performances.
>
>Residency will include basic support for travel, accommodations, and 
>materials fees, as well as a small stipend.  Some meals will also be 
>provided.  This residency is organized by the Critical Disability 
>Studies research group
