Handiclapped - Kultur Barrierefrei e.V.

“Inclusion rocks! Music for All.” According to this motto the Berlin based charity “Handiclapped – Kultur Barrierefrei” promotes inclusion through live music since 2008.

400 concerts organized:
Artists with and without disabilities make music together for an equally inclusive audience. The concerts take place early in the evening, in accessible locations and cost little or no admission. They’re meeting places where music as a common language and inclusion can be experienced as enrichment for all.

And much more:
Handiclapped organizes music workshops, online meetings for bands and every other year a congress “Live-Music and Inclusion”. Additionally, Handiclapped supports two bands directly and promotes music projects from all over Germany on www.pincmusic.net – as well as with a monthly radio show.

Inclusive bands are an enhancement for every event! Handiclapped is recognized as a non-profit organization and is happy to offer advice and support to event organizers.
