Disabled Dreamers

In Pain and Insane is excited to host “Disabled Dreamers” , a two-part event for Wild Pride 2026! The first part will be a panel discussion facilitated by Allie Pauld about arts and accessibility for disabled queer artists, followed by a variety show. The variety show will spotlight queer disabled talent. This year we will have a bigger venue so we can accommodate more wheelchair and mobility aid users, as well as provide a quiet space that is more off to the side of the main action.

We will also have ASL and LSQ interpretation and free food and drinks, our event will be masked mandatory. “Disabled Dreamers” is PWYC and NOTAFLOF, we aim to keep our events as financially accessible as possible with the understanding that fully accessible events are much more expensive to have. Let’s dream and build together in a world where disabled bodyminds are not given the privilege of desire and dreaming. We can’t wait to connect in our pain, insanity, and joy.
