I am a potent and energetic disability movement artist. Equally important I am an artist member of Kickstart Disability Arts &amp; Culture, British Columbia&#8217;s leading arts hub for artists with disabilities. I am proud to have served Kickstart in Vancouver in 2020 as a disability arts presenter and in past years as a contracted disabled dancer and look forward to my continued association with our province&#8217;s dedicated organization committed to the empowerment of artists with physical, intellectual and sensory disabilities in Vancouver and the lower mainland.<br>I have also presented to the All Bodies Dance Project in Vancouver and am a Full Artist member of the Scotiabank Dance Centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u00ab Je crois que Sync Canada peut m\u2019aider \u00e0 mieux comprendre mon potentiel en tant que leader artistique pour les personnes handicap\u00e9es et me donner les outils dont j\u2019ai besoin pour m\u2019aider \u00e0 manifester mes objectifs dans la gestion de mon propre organisme artistique pour personnes handicap\u00e9es dirig\u00e9 par un handicap.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lawrence is a validated Deaf and Disability Artist with the Canada Council for the Arts and have for nearly twenty years been a leading amputee dancer in Canada and British Columbia.
