art gallery of alberta

The Art Gallery of Alberta has some neat exhibits at the moment. I was there the other day and especially enjoyed the Emily Carr exhibit. This painting, "Indian House With Totems", was my favourite.

In terms of accessibility, the art gallery is okay. The main issue is that none of the doors to the galleries are automatic. If the security people see you they'll rush over to open the door for you, but this system doesn't work all the time, and plus it's kind of awkward standing around waiting for someone to open a door for you. Other than that it's pretty accessible.

ableism documentary

This short documentary was made by high school students in California. It's a pretty good outline of what ableism is, and features some sweet whiteboard illustrations. Check it out!

Thé Vinh is an excellent guitar player, who happens to only have one arm.

He also plays harmonica. The video quality kind of sucks, but it's really cool to watch.
