ASL (American Sign Language) Happy Hour
June 24, 2021 @ 5:30 pm - 7:30 pm
You don’t need to be single to attend this one – everyone is welcome to learn and have fun!
We will have the back area reserved at Dos Luces. If you are fully vaccinated, you will not be required to wear a mask to enter. Please note that facial expressions are an important part of ASL, so if you prefer to still wear a mask, we can set up a seat that is socially distanced for you. We want everyone to feel comfortable & have a great time!
Matthew Simmons will be teaching & our very own, Lyndsey Gibbons (event coordinator/ social butterfly/ professional interpreter) will be assisting along the way!

On a daily basis he uses lip reading, signing & speaking for communication.
