[quote=Anonymous]One thing that I think gets missed in this discussion is that not everyone looking for an accessible venue knows the needs of the people they are representing. I recently looked for a venue for a speaker who was coming to town. I knew that the speaker might attract listeners with physical disabilities, so it was important to me that the venue be accessible, but since we were selling tickets to the public I couldn't tell you whether I would have a large adult man in a power chair, who would need wide doorways and zero steps, or a tiny teeneage girl with a walker that can handle low curbs, and narrow doorways but needs a short walk from the accessible.parking spot, and a family bathroom where Dad can help her. Looking for an ADA compliant space let me know that most access issues would be addressed and let me communicate that to potential audience members.[/quote]
