Our mission is to raise awareness of the triumphs within inclusive education. We believe there are issues related to social justice & lack of educational opportunity for students served in special education. We want to explore creative pedagogy that serves students within inclusive classroom environments using film as a launchpad for discussion, advocacy and change in special education.

The Dis/Ability Film Festival will have one face-to-face screening outside on the Western Colorado University campus on June 11th, Saturday evening will include a film screening and keynote with a filmmaker along with a reception. We will host an additional special event at Crested Butte Arts Center on Sunday, June 12th, with a reception and panel of ability-related organizations here in the Gunnison and Crested Butte communities.
