Glass Ceiling Arts Collective’s Sensory Lab toured the country offering 11 immersive workshops across Aotearoa.

Glass Ceiling Arts Collective is proud to present AHI: After Mahuika, a revolutionary new multi-sensory play designed to engage audiences of all abilities, including those with profound disabilities.
