Autumn 2024 Schedule

Beginners Meetings:  We have a “beginners series” that starts from scratch at the beginning of the quarter working through to basic conversation skils! Meetings will be an hour long from 5-6 pm in the HUB. This meeting is specifically for new and beginner signers wanting to learn ASL! If you are taking part, attend as many meetings as possible for the most effective learning! All PowerPoints and our vocab list from our beginner Meetings can be found here.

ASL Chats: Directly after our beginners meetings, from 6-7 pm we will have an hour of practicing ASL or playing ASL-related games. This is the time to spark discussion with peers, learn more about deaf culture, and meet others passionate about learning languages. All of our meetings are for signers of all levels, but we encourage a voices off environment! This may be out of your comfort zone at first, but it's and important accessibility and learning measure. 

ASL Outings: Every odd week in the UW school schedule we will meet at a variety of locations on campus and the U District area will be switching it up and meeting either Wednesday of Thursday evenings. Some of our most popular ASL outings include Boba Night, Board Game Night, Cooking and Baking Nights, and Arts & Crafts Night!

Happy Fall 2024
