Join Disability Unite and the NYC Commission on Human Rights for a free 34th anniversary celebration of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in New York City.

The ADA, signed into law July 26, 1990, by former President George Bush, is the the country’s first comprehensive civil rights law for people with disabilities.

This year’s hybrid event combines in-person festivities at the Central Park Naumburg Bandshell and an online experience. You can join in virtually via this website or in-person at the bandshell.

For virtual participants, the Disability Unite Festival will be livestreamed on the website with all access accommodations for those unable to travel or not located in NYC.

Offerings include Disability Inclusion Training and on-stage performances.
