I'm getting addicted to Wikistorming!! And good news is that Wikipedia went into my modifications and fixed some of my technical challenges for me, in addition to creating links from some of my words.

I added some new information to the Disability Art page:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disability_Art

And below my additions in orange once again.

Development of the concept of disability arts in other countries

Non-profit, government-funded organizations dedicated to providing resources and support towards activities in disability art are numerous in countries like Australia and Canada. In Australia, such organizations include Arts Access Australia (peak body), Accessible Arts (NSW), DADAA (WA), Arts Access Victoria (VIC) and more.^[21] In Canada, organizations include Arts & Disability Network Manitoba, Kickstart Arts - disability arts and culture and Abilities Arts Festival.^[22] These organizations work to increase opportunities and access for people with disability as artists, arts-workers, participants and audiences. They offer services to their members, such as representation and advocacy, facilitation and development, information and advice, grants and more. Many of these organizations use the Social model of disability, thus they use the term ‘disability’ to refer to barriers, rather than medical conditions or impairments. They might categorize ‘people with disability’, to mean anyone with sensory or physical impairments, hidden impairments, intellectual impairments, learning difficulties or mental health conditions. These organizations recognise and value the culture and language of the Deaf community, and include them within this definition in regognition of the similar barriers that many deaf people face accessing the arts. ^[21]
