AAV's new Arts Program Manager

I am introducing you to the new Arts Program Manager at Arts Access Victoria, 
Caroline Moore. We are very excited to have Caroline joining us. Caroline 
brings a wealth of experience in the community arts and cultural development 
sector as well as deep commitment to inclusive practice. She has been the 
driving force behind numerous independent multi-art form productions including 
as Director of the Apollo Bay Music Festival and General Manager of Melbourne 
Fringe. We look forward to having her talents and experience in our 
organisation. 

Fiona Cook has not left AAV! She now works in a mentoring program "Boost!" 
Pathways at Arts Access Victoria. Fiona have worked closely with DAN since 
2008, and will continue with her passion for Deaf Arts. Ross asks

Do you like poems?


Do you like signing poems in Auslan?

Would you like to sign a poem at a major event on 16th June with other people?

I am looking for deaf and hearing people who are excellent at signing Auslan, 
to be sent a poem online that is signed by a deaf person, to practice from home 
and with friends. 

Please email me your interest at deafartsnetwork@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx's website

Did you go to see the Melbourne International Comedy Festival? Did you see 
other shows that was advertised by DAN?

Was it funny? Was it flat? Was it suitable for deaf people? Was it "too 
hearing"? Did your children enjoy the show? Did you all understand everything?

CLICK FOR INFORMATION100% Melbourne. Our city, on stage

Auslan Interpreted session is this Sunday 6 May @ 6pm

After 100% Berlin, 100% Vienna and 100% Vancouver, it’s now time for 100% 
Melbourne. Our city, on stage.

One hundred everyday Melburnians bring the demographics of Melbourne to life, 
in a unique part-theatre, part-game, part-reality performance. World renowned 
artists, Rimini Protokoll draw on the perspectives of ‘experts in daily life’ 
to create 100% Melbourne so each participant represents one per cent of the 
four million people living in Melbourne, putting our census data on stage.   

In a chain reaction style of recruitment, the first participant was elected 
then had 24 hours to recruit the next, continuing on until the cast reached 
100. With casting now complete, tickets are on sale for this must-see 
performance.

Performances are on Friday 4 May and Saturday 5 May at 7.30pm, and on Sunday 6 
May at 6pm, at the Melbourne Town Hall, Swanston Street.

Tickets: $20 each, $15 for concession and $55 for a family ticket (two adults 
and three children under 16 years). Tickets are available online.

Moonshadow

From the Access Team

There is a new musical coming out this year called Moonshadow, based on the 
songs of Cat Stevens. Do you think this is something people from the deaf 
community might be interested in? Just checking whether we should try to 
persuade them to have an Auslan or captioned performance.
