NL Deaf Choir: Documentary and Panel Discussion


Date: Sep 25
7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Where: Theatre

In 2019, an awareness campaign was launched to help hearing communities learn more about Deaf culture. This campaign ignited a passion within our Deaf community for promoting language and culture rights, and it gave rise to the formation of the NL Deaf Choir.

Please join us for a short documentary that shares our Deaf community’s journey from campaign to choir, and most importantly, to the transformation within our collective communities that is making space for our silent minority in song.

The documentary will be followed by a panel discussion with members of the NL Deaf Choir as they share their experiences.

This is a free event, but a ticket is required. Please reserve your free ticket online or by calling (709)757-8090.
