Visually Speaking

Did you know that Gay City has a new location? Yep, and not only that, they’re now called Seattle’s LGBTQ+ Center? They’ve been through a lot of changes and the community is excited about it! Visually Speaking continues the collaboration and ASL classes will be provided in their gorgeous new classroom, which is a safe space for anyone in the queer community! 

Welcome to Level up American Sign Language (ASL) course, this 6 week class is perfect for those who have some experience with ASL.

In this course, you will learn how to acquire new vocabulary, work on facial expressions and engage in discussions. You will also learn how to sign about relationships, art, and emotions. 

This course is more than just an ASL class. This is a safe and affirming environment for LGBTQ+ individuals to engage with and connect with the signing queer community. By the end of this course, you will have not only improved ASL skills, but you will also have a deeper understanding of the signing queer community and how to communicate in a respectful and inclusive way.

Note: Since the LGBTQ+ Center is partially a medical facility, we ask that you please respect the space by wearing face masks upon entry, however once in the classroom, facemasks are optional. Also, please keep your fragrance at home. To learn more about the building’s accessibility and the fragrance-free policy, check out https://www.gaycity.org/accessibility/
