As part of Grand Rapids Civic Theatre's commitment to creating access, we are looking to assemble an inaugural panel of Lived Experience within the Disabled Community. This panel will work to provide open and honest feedback on current programming, help to plan the accessibility programming proposal for future seasons, and assist in growing our outreach circle.
Lived experience is defined as “personal knowledge about the world gained through direct, first-hand involvement in everyday events rather than through representations constructed by other people.” It is also defined as “the experiences of people on whom a social issue or combination of issues has had a direct impact.”
