ASL Interpreted programs

11 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 facilitator 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.
