999 Eyes Freakshow

Dear Editor,
    We of the 999 Eyes Authentic Vaudevillian Freakshow were shocked when we found that the Austin Music Foundation is to hold its upcoming Music Industry Boot Camp at the Parish, a venue which does not have wheelchair access. We have been attending these informative seminars, which are free and open to the public, and as human anomalies, some of our members use wheelchairs.
    Samantha X, member of the 999 Eyes, wrote a letter to the AMF to ask why the Parish was chosen to hold the event despite its inaccessibility. Alissa McCain, director of programs and operations, responded right away to assure us that in the future they will only hold their boot camp at accessible venues. The AMF is a small group that has been trying to accommodate their increasingly popular seminars, and finding a supportive venue that will donate space and sound equipment has been a challenge. We would like to thank the AMF for their willingness to make their event available to everyone, and we encourage accessible venues to team up with the AMF to support Austin's arts!
