WELCOME TO DDMAAC
THE DEAF, DISABILITY & MAD ARTS ALLIANCE OF CANADA
STAGE LEFT'S NATIONAL NETWORK, OF ARTISTS EXPERIENCING DISABLEMENT

Shifting the focus:
From access back to non-normative aesthetics.
What was established twenty years ago as a site of cultural autonomy, artistic
self-determination, and collective representation...is now a site of inclusion
wherein disabled people are dependent on the non-disabled for access to the
arts.
Michele Decottignies, 
Stage Left Productions

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


VISION: Through DDMAAC, Stage Left cultivates grassroots conduits of cultural
affinity, artistic autonomy and disability justice in Canada's Deaf/ Disability/
Mad Arts domain, and promotes the collective interests of artists whose lived
experience of disablement advances artistic and aesthetic non-normativity.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------




ADVOCACY & SUPPORTS FOR DDMTSC* ARTS

DDMAAC is Stage Left Productions' national network of diverse DDMSCT Arts*
contributors, and a hub of systemic-change advocacy in Canada's DDMSTC Arts
domain. We do not, however, aspire to represent nor lead the entire domain. More
specifically, DDMAAC supports Stage Left collaborators who are marginalized from
the domain, as a result of its neoliberalization and the classist imposition of
"access" (to a mass culture that relentlessly devalues people who live with any
kind of impairment? No thanks!).

Through DDMAAC, Stage Left offers solidarity and support services to socially
and culturally diverse members of our company who experience disablement in the
professional arts ecology, who seek a practice of autonomy over inclusion and
who understand that "access" is merely a condition of artistic practice, not the
end goal. 

We consequently collaborate with other radicals (catalysts of systemic change
vs. inclusion) to advance disability justice, throughout the professional arts
ecology: The advancement of counter-cultural, non-normative aesthetics, through
the integration of decolonization, anti-racism and anti-oppression into
production and presenting processes.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
DDMAAC acknowledges the Original Peoples in Canada as the sovereign stewards of
the traditional territories we now occupy. We also acknowledge our Treaty
obligations, and work daily to maintain good relations and uphold the 94 Calls
to Action from the Truth & Reconciliation Commission. 

We apologize for not yet being able to secure the funding needed to bridge the
digital divide; meaning that we can't afford to provide full and proper access
to our website and literature (which is ironic, considering that DDMAAC is
Canada's only national arts support organization specifically attending to the
collective interests of professional, diverse artists who live with some form of
impairment!).
