Access Studio’s FUTURES Program
January 6 @ 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm Vancouver

Join us on January 6th from 12-1 pm for a presentation on Access Studio’s new FUTURES program for aspiring leaders.
This information session will be hosted by the FUTURES facilitation team, Jess Watkin (she/they), Joey Florence (he/him), and Kristina McMullin (she/her), and invites attendees to discover FUTURES, hear alumni stories, learn about programming activities, and support the registration process.
FUTURES is a free three-month program for Disabled, Neurodivergent, and equity-deserving youth (18-30) who want to discover who they are and make the change they want to see in the world. In FUTURES, you will be a part of weekly programming featuring creative workshops, guest speakers, facilitated discussions, mentorship, game nights, and good old-fashion hang-outs. FUTURES empowers you to explore your identity, grow as a leader, and build lasting connections. To learn more about FUTURES, follow them on Instagram @Access.Studio.Official.
This information session takes place on Zoom. Zoom captions will be available for the duration of the session. During the question period, you can ask questions via chat or microphone. This session will be recorded and shared with attendees on YouTube. You will automatically be emailed the calendar invite and Zoom link after you register.
If you require ASL interpretation, please contact studio@accessnow.ca by Friday December 19, 2025.
