ASL Night was an event held at the Civic Event Center in Denver to celibate Deaf history and culture in Colorado.

The event included performances from many members of the Deaf community, as well as tables from sponsors supporting the event.

It displayed art by Deaf artists, my favorite showing how signs symbolize their meaning. Sculpted hands were painted as what sign they were. Mountains, animals, activities…

ASL Night took place in September to celebrate Deaf Heritage and Awareness month. It highlights the importance of access to communication such as interpreters at events and the culture behind Sign.

In a room that was dead silent, a hundred complex and flourishing conversations were taking place.

The lights flashed to grab the rooms attention and performances started. This included mimes.

There were comedy performances and interpretations of famous movies like Indiana Jones.

And even musical interpretation, expressing lyricism and emotion. Music has a big role in Deaf Culture.

Colorado really showed up for this Deaf Celebration.
