Accessibility

The official venue pages do not publish a detailed accessibility guide, and the complex uses chapel and basement rooms. Contact Preserving before buying to confirm which room is in use, step-free entry, stairs or elevator access, wheelchair viewing, restrooms, seating in standing-room events, and companion needs.
