Americans with Disabilities Act - Accessibility: The Canton Museum of Art considers physical and programmatic accessibility for people with disabilities as an integral part of the organization's planning and budgeting process. CMA facilities are accessible to all people with disabilities, including wheelchair / roller ramps and marked accessible parking areas. We work within our exhibitions and programs to provide opportunities for everyone to have meaningful engagement with art, including access points for those of varying hearing, visual, cognitive, and health abilities or challenges. This includes signing and visual/sensory aids whenever possible. Additionally, the Museum's Art Therapy program engages its participants in exhibition and art experience activities directly tailored to their mental and/or physical health needs. CMA's Curatorial, Education, and Marketing staff act to advise Museum leadership on accessibility protocols and recommend new initiatives for programs. In the course of 2022-2024 CMA is dedicated to further expanding engagement and accessibility in the galleries, such as phasing in Braille exhibition labels and related tools where possible, in partnership with local, regional, and national foundations for specific project funding needs.
