The following is one full paragraph, describing Accessible Festivals' involvement: "During Musikfest 2021 we introduced our first Inclusion Zone. The Inclusion Zone is a sensory-supportive space that provides services, tools, and amenities to benefit individuals with sensory-processing difficulties of all ages and abilities. In 2022, we expanded our efforts by offering two inclusion zones on the North and South sides of the festival as well as integrating an Inclusion Day on August 7, 2022. ArtsQuest partnered with Accessible Festivals to accommodate patrons and performers with disabilities by providing American Sign Language interpreters at 4 performances throughout the day.
