Providing transformative visual arts experiences to as broad an audience as possible is an Eastside Arts Society (EAS) core value. We remove physical, social, and financial barriers wherever possible to ensure everyone has an opportunity to experience the visual arts. We’re continually working to improve our accessibility. If you have any questions, concerns or suggestions, we would love to hear from you! You can contact us here.

Inclusivity is one of our core values and that extends to creating a gender-inclusive environment. We provide training to our volunteers and encourage participating studio buildings to have a gender inclusive washroom policy.
