Here's a spotlight on one of Arts InCommunity's panelists for our FREE virtual workshop and panel discussion "Arts & Cultural Accessibility" on Tuesday, March 28 at 12:00 PM ET.

Hi! My name is Chris Cushing. I am a husband, an uncle, a software engineer, a clarinet player, a Star Wars nerd, and I also happen to have cerebral palsy. I recently launched a YouTube channel, Chris vs CP, for the purpose of increasing awareness about cerebral palsy and to inspire others to adventure in spite of limitations. I invite everyone to join me on my exploration of the beautiful city of Orlando, FL, including Disney World, Universal Studios and more. As an adult with cerebral palsy, I hope to provide insight, encouragement and a unique perspective on life that can bring a smile to your day. Come along, let’s have some fun! Chris vs CP
