The Cultural Access Calendar is an online portal that allows the public to find cultural events, including virtual and online events, with specific accommodations such as open captioning, ASL interpretation, and sensory-friendly adjustments.

The calendar is searchable by specific accommodation and features a wide variety of offerings from the state’s theatre, visual art, dance, music, and museum community.

"Access Thursdays" is an annual spring series of monthly educational opportunities for the arts and culture field to come together to learn from experts and peers about how to ensure the arts are accessible to all. Staff members from New Jersey arts and cultural organizations can register for one or all of the events at: https://njtheatrealliance.org/access-thursday-lineup-fy22#toc.

The 2022 Access Thursdays Series is fully virtual, closed captioned and hosted on Zoom.  See the full 2022 lineup below:
