A staple of pop culture and fandom is the idea of how everyone is welcome in fandom spaces—but what can be done to make the space even more accessible? Chelsea Schwartz (actor and pop culture creator), Kiah Amara (founder, IndieVisible; accessibility creator), Crystal Rivers (cosplayer, entertainment journalist), Rebecca Faith Quinn (influencer), and other accessibility advocates in the entertainment space discuss the small and big actions that can be taken to ensure everyone has a seat at the table. Topics include accessibility faux pas that may be perpetuated, what to look for to consider your workspace and/or event accessible, and practical actions and resources that film sets, TV productions, and fandom spaces can take advantage of.
