Access Living and Hoopla have partnered for decades to produce the annual Lead On! Gala. As the nation’s leader in disability rights advocacy and independent living services and as an organization led and staffed by people with disabilities, Access Living is always pushing the envelope on how to create a city, a nation, a world that works for people with disabilities. Over the years Hoopla has become Access Living’s go-to event producer and through this experience, we’ve learned how to place accessibility at the center of event production.
To that end, for all events that Hoopla produces, we counsel our clients to provide a state-of-the-art accessible experience for people with disabilities, such as live captioning, ASL interpreters, ESL interpreters, audio description, Braille materials, ramps for all risers, sensory rooms, and more.
We also produced their first-ever (live!) virtual event in 2020, learning how to best integrate accessibility accommodations into all elements of a virtual event.
