Pathways & Policies
The HCA is dedicated to establishing and embodying a culture of communication, empathy, and care rooted in Awareness, Connection, & Trust. Our goal is to foster safe spaces for all artists to create, collaborate, and build community together as we explore and share our collaborative work. Learn more about OUT LOUD's growing Holistic and Logistic "Pathways & Policies", rooted in ANTI-RACIST, ANTI-OPPRESSIVE, & ANTI-HARRASSMENT practices, upheld by The Hawkridge Center for the Arts.
Accessibility: There are two designated handicap parking spots located directly in front of The Mills building along with an expansive parking lot with accessible spaces throughout. An accessibility ramp is located in the front of the building, providing access to the front door marked "ENTRANCE". In addition, members of our collaborative team will welcome individuals at the front door, facilitating elevator access to and from the third floor, and/or providing directions to the two staircase options provided, for all participants.
Access Needs: An access need is defined as anything a person requires in order to fully be able to engage in their environment or community. For example, this encompasses anything that a person may desire or require to communicate, learn, participate, and/or take part in an activity - mental, physical, spatial, and/or emotional. Access needs are subject to change and evolve at any time, so continual flexibility and communication with our ensemble are vital parts of our overall process and methodology. Our goal is to create flexible and expansive access for all ensemble members, with open pathways for holistic communication built into the fabric of our collaborative. The HCA looks forward to working one on one with our ensemble members and members of our community to best meet the individual and collective needs of all involved.
