Our Accessibility Journey

The Redwood Art Association's Accessibility Journey has been a long journey and difficult but satisfying, The chair lift is now available. Any donation will still help make an impact. We have an amount to pay off the equipment and we're getting a quote for enhancing the front door access. Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to people of all abilities.

In 2012 the RAA purchased and renovated a Classical Revival building at 603 F Street in Eureka, designed in 1925 by F.T. Georgeson, to serve as a headquarters and exhibition space, open to the public. Those coming to our gallery with physical disabilities or mobility impairments have not been able to access gallery spaces on the second floor easily or at all. Other ADA compliant renovations have been made or are currently underway to allow people of all abilities to fully engage with every aspect of our organization. Personal gallery spaces, restrooms, and entry/exits have been upgraded as we work within our funding and staffing limitations to achieve accessibility results and embrace greater inclusivity.
