The East of England Disabled Creatives Meet-Up is a free space for deaf, disabled and/or neurodivergent creatives to meet, share and create!

As artists, don’t ask for permission. Take up space. For yourself and your work. We aim to provide that space for you!

This is a monthly in-person meet-up at the Mercury Theatre in collaboration with Graeae Theatre Company.

We welcome artists at any experience level. The aim is to establish a relaxed space for people to attend for however long they wish within the meet-up session time. The meet-up is from 10am-1pm, but you are welcome to drop-in anytime. It will be an opportunity to network, meet new artists in your area, and develop your practice.

We will be meeting in the upstairs bar at the Mercury Theatre, if you do not know where this is, please ask a member of our Box Office or Front of House staff and they will guide you. The Mercury’s Graeae Associate, Christian Markham, will always be in attendance to facilitate and/or answer any questions you might have about the Mercury, Graeae, or wider disabled arts initiatives.
