CAPA has partnered with Kulture City, the nation’s leading nonprofit on sensory accessibility and acceptance for those with invisible disabilities. Our venues are officially Kulture City certified, which means our staff and volunteers are provided with continuous training and our venues are available on the Kulture City app. KultureCity signage can be seen throughout our venues to designate quiet areas, headphone zones, and sensory inclusive locations. We also have sensory bags available at all CAPA locations. Sensory bags are offered free of charge for all performances on a first-come, first-served basis and are meant for individuals of any age. Patrons should be directed to the House Manager if they request a sensory bag.
