👋🏾 Phoenix-metro, Arizona families, it's time for us to gather again!

🎨 Registration is now open for The Art Room: Deaf Kids Create, an event brought to you in partnership with Deafinitely Communicating and the Melanated Deaf Visual Arts Project (MDVAP). 🧡

We are excited to invite deaf and hard of hearing children and youth and their families to an evening of creativity inspired by De'VIA (Deaf View/Image Art), an art movement that expresses the Deaf experience, culture, and identity through visual art.

Kids will take part in a De'VIA mini workshop, learn about Deaf artists and the ideas behind De'VIA, and then create a masterpiece of their own with the support of local Deaf artists.

📅 Saturday, October 24, 2026
⏰ 5:00–7:30 PM
📍 Mood Room, 3121 N. 3rd Avenue, Suite 100, Phoenix, AZ 85013

Spots are limited. Only 20 seats available.
Register early to save your child's spot.
The registration deadline is Friday, October 16, 2026.

NOTE: This is NOT a drop-off event. A parent or caregiver must stay with their child(ren) for the entire event. We'd love for you to join in the fun alongside them!

30 days. 26 letters. 55 collaborators. And SO many incredible people learning, sharing, supporting, and growing together. ❤️

As our 2026 ABCs of Deaf Education Series and celebration of Deaf Awareness Month comes to an end, we want to say THANK YOU to everyone who made this month's series possible.

To the Deaf and hard of hearing creators, professionals, educators, parents, children, youth, interpreters, advocates, and community members who shared your stories, work, and perspectives, thank you for saying yes and allowing us to spotlight you and the diversity within the deaf and hard of hearing community.

To everyone who shared a post, shared a story, tagged a friend, commented, sent a message, followed along, or silently learned something new this month, thank you too!

The ABC series is a passion project we started roughly 4 years ago with a simple goal: to amplify deaf and hard of hearing voices, perspectives, and stories, educate families and the professionals who worth with them, and advocate alongside the DHH community.

Deaf Awareness month and the ABC series may be over, but the work NEVER stops.
Thanks for being here!

.. and last but not least, Meet Lisa! 👋🏾✨

In her reel, Lisa, a Deaf performer, educator, and visual storyteller, shared an ABC story that shared a vision for a new era filled with creativity, connection, and possibility for Deaf artists, families, and the Deaf and hard of hearing community. She ended with a personal message and reminded the Deaf community - “Our stories deserve to be seen. Our contributions deserve to be celebrated. Together, we can shape our future. OUR STORIES. OUR FUTURE.”

Deaf Awareness Month officially ended yesterday, September 30th. We spent the month spotlighting Deaf professionals, Deaf content creators, Deaf advocates, Deaf children and youth, parents of Deaf and hard of hearing children, and the professionals who serve them. The month ended. The work continues.

To close out the month, Lisa McBee, a Deaf performer, educator, and visual storyteller shares this ABC story and a special note.

“My ABC story carries a vision for a new era filled with creativity, connection, and possibility for Deaf artists, families, and our community.

For Deaf Awareness Month, I’m celebrating our stories and the power of ASL to bring people together. Let’s support one another, grow recognition within and beyond the Deaf community, and build stronger bridges between Deaf and hearing people.

Our stories deserve to be seen. Our contributions deserve to be celebrated. Together, we can shape our future.

OUR STORIES. OUR FUTURE.

💙

✨ Meet Jarrius “J7”

Jarrius, a Deaf young athlete who loves football, baseball, and basketball, reminded us that being Deaf doesn’t limit what you can achieve. Jarrius uses ASL, works hard, dreams big, and shared this message - Be yourself. Chase your dreams. ZERO LIMITS!

Z is for … ZERO LIMITS!

Hello! My name is Jarrius, and J7 is my sign name.

I am Deaf, I use ASL, and I love sports!

Many people think deaf people are incapable of doing things.

NOPE!

I can play football. 🏈
I can play baseball — I’m a pitcher! ⚾
I can play basketball. 🏀

I work hard, learn, compete, and never give up!

Being Deaf does not limit my dreams.

Be yourself and chase your dreams!

ZERO LIMITS! 🤟🏾💙

✨ Meet Sharon!

In her reel, Sharon, Co-Founder & Clinical Director of Deaf Counseling Center, had a specific message for hearing professionals - Zoom Out. Instead of ‘fixating on hearing and speech abilities’, Sharon reminded hearing professionals to see Deaf people as whole. When this happens, hearing professionals get a much fuller, authentic, and realistic picture of Deaf people.

To connect with Sharon and learn more about her work as Clinical Director of Deaf Counseling Center, follow her Deaf Counseling Center .

Z is for … ZOOM OUT!
Hearing people, particularly hearing professionals working with the Deaf population, need to remember to Zoom Out when meeting Deaf people. See the Deaf person as a whole person, instead of fixating on hearing and speech abilities. When you Zoom Out, you get a much fuller, authentic, and realistic picture of the Deaf person.

In his reel, Wyatte, an assistant professor and director, shared about the meaning of the word, ‘Zenith’. He shared about his work focused on giving all Deaf children access to language and reminded us that deaf and hard of hearing children are capable of reaching their zenith, or highest point or peak.

To connect with Wyatte, learn more about his work, the Visual Language Acquisition and Access (VLAA) Lab, and their studies of the relationship between early childhood language experiences and quality of life outcomes for deaf populations across the lifespan, follow

Z is for … ZENITH!

All deaf and hard-of-hearing children are capable of reaching their zenith. In our collective work, we want to encourage “AND” for deaf children’s language acquisition rather than “OR” to give them all the possible language opportunities. Depending on their language journeys, each deaf child’s Zenith will look different but they all deserve to achieve it!

[VD: Dr. Wyatte Hall, a white man with short brown hair swept to one side, and a full dark brown beard. He is wearing a blue button-down shirt while standing in front of a rectangular white pillar. He shares a message in American Sign Language about deaf children’s language journey. His message is captioned on screen. Full transcript provided in comments.]

Reel transcript: Z is for Zenith. It means the highest point or peak. My work focuses on giving all Deaf children access to language, but that journey through life isn’t linear. There are obstacles along the way to each child’s zenith.
