About

Lily is a white person with short brown curly hair. They wear a green shirt and smile widely at the camera in front of a yellow background.

Lily Lipman (all the pronouns!) is a queer, autistic, multi-disabled activist who creates disabled centered access in cultural spaces. They center co-creation, organizing, relationship building, and access dreaming in their practice. Lily’s goal is to make access work a more artistic and intentional experience created by and for disabled folks.


They began their career in the arts after graduating from NYU with a BFA in Acting; pursuing roles in theater, film, and TV. They used their minor in Child and Adolescent Mental Studies and a concentration in Applied Theatre to work in education for a variety of institutions. They navigated the ableism of the theater and arts industry throughout their education and after graduating. After working in a variety of cultural institutions and artistic projects they found that this ableism extends to audience members, workers, and artists. Their unique background enables them to integrate storytelling, dynamic conversation, and play in their activism; understanding that joy and curiosity are essential in order to reimagine a more inclusive world.
