The p5.js Access Day is a virtual conference to talk about access in open-source software for the arts (OSSTA) and greater issues beyond the software. The day-long online event features four themed-sessions — Critical Web Accessibility, Disability Arts, Access & Community Building, and Access via Translation. It provides space for contributors of p5.js and experienced practitioners from outside OSSTA projects to share their knowledge, perspectives, and dreams for building greater access to technical and arts spaces.
