ASL Interpreted Programs
– 1 am: Magic show by Deaf magician, Steve Weiner
There’s nothing scary in Steve’s show, but everything is geared towards comedy and fun tricks he has collected for the past 30+ years of his career!
– 12 pm: Family Circle
Bring your lunch and meet other families! There will be resources and a conversation facilitated by Katie Prins from Boston Children’s Hospital’s Deaf and Hard of Hearing Program.
– 1:30 pm: KidStage show
– 2:30 pm: Dance workshops by Deafblind dancer, Kerry Thompson
How do you dance if you cannot hear the music? How do you dance if you cannot see? Is salsa and merengue a food or a dance? What is bachata? Come find out as Kerry Thompson, a Deafblind dancer and Director for Silent Rhythms Dance, teaches us to think about music and dance in a different way through performances and workshops.

Registration is required to receive the discounted admission. You must be a party with at least one person who is Deaf or Hard of Hearing. http://www.bostonchildrensmuseum.org/deaf-family-event
