A Journey Through Deaf History - Presentation Provided in ASL

Have you ever taken an ASL class and wanted to learn more about Deaf history, culture, and identity? We would love to have you join us next week for a journey through Deaf history!

Thursday, April 23rd from 6:00-7:30 pm
Delivered online with viewing space at IDHHC Victoria or Nanaimo

We will explore key moments, influential figures, and milestones that have shaped Deaf identity and culture, from early advocacy and education to modern achievements and community milestones. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of Deaf experiences, the resilience of the community, and how historical events continue to influence Deaf culture today.

Open to Deaf, hard of hearing, and hearing participants eager to learn and connect through shared understanding.

ASL to English interpreters and captioning will be provided.
