Making the Arts Accessible: Audio Description Workshop for Students
The Academy is committed to advancing inclusive arts practices and empowering students to engage with diverse communities. As part of this effort, Audio Description (AD)—a form of narration that conveys key visual elements to enhance accessibility for visually impaired audiences—has been introduced as a practical tool for inclusive communication in the performing arts.
To equip students with foundational knowledge and hands-on experience in arts accessibility, the Academy’s Student Recruitment and Community Engagement Office organised an “Introduction to Audio Description Workshop” on 30 May 2026 for the first time. Delivered in collaboration with guest speakers from the Arts with the Disabled Association Hong Kong, the three-hour session covered essential concepts of inclusive practice and provided practical training in applying AD techniques.
