For 26 years, Arts Access, a nonprofit organization
based in Raleigh, NC, has been making the arts accessible to people
with disabilities. We advocate for arts accessibility throughout
the Triangle area of North Carolina; provide audio description for theatre
patrons who are blind or have low vision; refer arts administrators to
sign language interpreters; and provide accessibility training to arts
organizations and arts accessibility information to the public.

Spotlight on Debbie Hippler: Our New PresidentHello,
I am Debbie Hippler the Audio Description Coordinator as well as the new
president of Arts Access, Inc. I have lived in the area for 20
years now; doesn't that almost make me a native? I was born and
grew up in northeast Ohio in Amish country. I have lived in Texas
and western Ohio before coming here. I am a mother of three and
grandmother of three and well as pet owner of three. I have worked
in accounting, insurance and legal professions as well as run my own
sewing business and worked with many children's programs. I am
very involved in the small church that my husband and I attend and love
life and all its opportunities.
My opportunity to learn about Arts Access came when I read a small
piece in the Cary News asking for those interested in audio
description to phone them. I did and was given an opportunity to
audition. I love describing and being able to assist our patrons
enjoy the opportunities the Triangle theatres have to offer. My
husband is a user and says that I am the best describer, no prejudice
there! My goal and desire is for Arts Access to gain more
recognition not only in name but in services offered. Please take
the time to share with all your family and friends about Arts Access;
and if you think you are a detail person, consider joining us as an
audio describer. You don't need any theatre background, just the
time and desire. Here's to a great new year!

The First Audio Described DVD of 2008 is Available, and its title
is BLIND DATING! A blind man enters the world of dating with mixed
success and lots of surprises. This movie was not released in
theaters. From 2007: the critically acclaimed Knocked Up,
Evan Almighty, and The Ultimate Gift (which has very
high user reviews).
Also available, the independent film release, 9/12: From Chaos to Community, "a
vibrant, moving, sometimes funny, sometimes painful portrayal of hope
and healing in the wake of disaster."
The following 2006 DVDs also have audio description tracks: Miami Vice, United 93, Munich,
and Inside Man. Note:
the presence of an AD track on the DVD is not generally specified on the
box, and the "Director's Cut" or "Unrated" versions typically do not include audio
description. You can view a synopsis and order these DVDs
via this website.
AUDIO DESCRIBED AND CAPTIONED MOVIES
AVAILABLE IN THE TRIANGLE! Three Triangle
area movie theaters are offering accessibility for patrons with vision or
hearing impairments for first-run movies such as Juno and
and the City. The White Oak Stadium 14 in Garner (919-676-3456) and Beaver
Creek Stadium 12 in Apex (919-362-7342) are offering audio description
and closed captioning on one screen and assistive listening devices
(ALDs) on all screens. Also, the Regal Stadium 14 at North Hills
in Raleigh (919-786-4494) has installed a system for audio description
and open captioning (plus they offer ALDs). Kudos to these
three theaters, the first in the Triangle serving both blind and deaf users!
NOTE: Over 500 first-run films have been captioned!
(See our Movie Theater Accessibility page for
more information.)
Books and DVDs related to the arts and disabilities.
We have compiled a large list of books which address the intersection of
Arts and Disabilities, plus we'll point you to several DVDs with
audio description. We have books for s, parents, teachers, and
children. Have a look now -- they make great GIFTS for the right person.
Click the cover image to the left to learn more about this particular randomly
selected book, or click the Books and DVDs hotlink above or the Books
link in the left column to see the complete list. Any
purchase you make by clicking through these links (not just books or
DVDs) supports Arts Access.
?
Why aren't more DVDs available with audio description?
Click the question to find the answer ... and see how you can help!
38 movies had audio description tracks in 2003, 48 in 2004, 58 in 2005,
63 in 2006, and 59 in 2007; but only a few made it to DVD each year. See the separate article above
about how these first-run movies are finally available in the Triangle,
but remember that almost none of the audio description tracks make it to
the DVD. You may order the few DVDs that are audio described via the
Audio Described DVDs link on this website.
We hope that you or someone you know will benefit from the free services
provided by Arts Access this year.
