This presentation focuses on a project th at brings together the worlds of applied anthropology and community-based arts to investigate the lived experiences of those with Fetal Alcohol Sp ectrum Disorder (FASD)—a lifelong disability that is both stigmatized a nd racialised. This interdisciplinary project draws from critical studies in improvisation as well as Anthropology and Science and Technology Stud ies which allows for different frames through which to listen for\, and a ttune to\, intersecting forms of marginalizations. The project places the lived experience at the centre of the research which is methodologically and politically necessary if one is to be engaged in disability studies as well as an accomplice in dismantling ableist ideologies\, policies and literatures associated to those with FASD. Drawing on the conceptual pos sibility of what George Lipsitz calls "arts-based community making\," the presentation will analyze how Participatory Action Research methods can illuminate the contingency of research findings. In so doing\, the method helps to reveal and rupture the structural barriers that marginalize and isolate individuals while concurrently allowing for the possibility of d eveloping collaborations to push back against marginalization that foster s community making. \;
