THE INFO BELOW PROVIDES GENERAL INFO REGARDING CHILDCARE & ACCESSIBILITY ISSUES (including PUBLIC TRANSIT):
What about the kids? Many
NoN Expo events are child-friendly and kids 14 & under automatically
get free admission, when accompanied by an adult caregiver. All
music cabarets are licensed, non-smoking and All-Ages-I.D. will be
required and strictly enforced to anyone who looks under the age of 25.
For parents wanting to bring their younger kids, a quiet room will be accessible
for wee tired night-owls (Childcare not provided).
Some
film screenings and exhibitions are not suitable for kids under 14 and will
be noted in the program with a Parental Discretion Advisory. Conversely,
the Oblio & Arrow button (at right) indicates
that we think the event is suitable for young children (Disclaimer:
Unless you are really conservative, in which case you probably have no interest
in this Expo anyway). Professional Childcare is not available but we do
endeavour to provide as many infant amenities as possible (emergency diapers,
quiet spaces, etc.)-if you bring your infant and need anything, ask a Volunteer
and we will accommodate to the best of our abilities.
Please be sure to submit
your comments to Speakers' Corner Alberta,
which will be at the Stanley A. Milner Library (Theatre Foyer) during the
last two weeks of September.
Wheelchair/Accessibility: Most NoN Expo activities
are Wheelchair/Accessible, but in some cases only via the 'back door'. If
you have a physical disability and want to access non-public elevators,
please try to call us at least 24 hours in advance
so we can ensure someone is there to provide access. And yes, we have insurance.
