AccessTO was once again invited to attend TIFF this past September. Once again this is a post in review. There is so much coverage that goes out live for many outlets that I decide there is no need to compete with them during the festival.
10 DEAN is a wonderfully sleek café located at the corner of Redpath & Broadway. While it may be about a 10-minute walk from Yonge Street, this off-the-beaten-path establishment is worth the visit. The staff is welcoming, accommodating and happy to assist if you have any questions or queries.
Located just south of Lawrence station's north exit, Brewing Brokers offers up modern charm with good coffee and pastry options. Owned by a real estate agency, the atmosphere of the cafe feels very upscale, sleek and clean, which you may find is reflected in their prices
Hot Docs was founded in 1993 and is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to advancing and celebrating the art of documentary and creating production opportunities for documentary filmmakers.
Hot Docs also prioritizes making their screenings as accessible as possible to members of the deaf community as part of their current mandate and multi year accessibility plan.

Many people will already think of the Ontario Science Centre as a family-friendly facility with fun for all ages, but over time the space has also evolved into a model of accessibility. Just in time for the new year, the Science Centre is in the process of reviewing their own accessibility, and welcomed AccessTO in to have a poke around.
The Toronto Comics Arts festival started back in 2003 and has grown to be one of the largest free public celebrations of independent comics anywhere. It has long been one of my favorite events to attend and I look forward to it every year.
