Accessibility & Inclusion

The Canopi Venue is a fully accessible, ground-floor venue designed for community workshops, exhibitions, and events. A shallow ramp provides access to the Gallery space, leading back down into the main Venue at the rear of the building. The space features widened doorways and an accessible toilet with a large turning circle to accommodate wheelchair users and those with mobility needs.

At The Sustainable Studio, we are committed to making our space, events, and opportunities as accessible and inclusive as possible. We continuously work to remove barriers and welcome feedback on how we can improve accessibility. If you have any suggestions or specific requirements, please contact us at hi@thecanopi.org
