Access

China Plate seeks to create an inclusive environment in which the creativity of all (whether as artists, audiences, participants or staff members) can flourish.

We are committed to enabling and facilitating professional, accessible, ethical and productive working environments.

We recognise that there are barriers to access and that the issue is not the responsibility of marginalised groups or individuals, but created by structures and institutions that have, whether from ignorance or apathy, excluded those groups and individuals.

China Plate endeavours to actively integrate access provision and inclusive practice into our productions and creative environments. We also prioritise the mental health and wellbeing of artists and creative teams. Visit our Artist & Producers page to read our Artist Wellbeing Policy.
