Are you interested in the challenge of another form of communication? Do you know a little Auslan? Are you learning Auslan? Are you fluent in Auslan? If you answered Yes to any of these questions please come along to our social monthly “Voice Off” event.
We welcome the Deaf Community, Hard of Hearing Community and the hearing community to come together and socialise. The Ballarat East Neighbourhood House will be hosting a Voice Off Session at the Sebastopol Library to support people wanting to communicate through Auslan (Australian Sign Language). As suggested in the “Voice Off” name this is a no-voice event.
Not sure you’re ready for the challenge? Come along to our Auslan Practice session, weekly at Barkly Square 2.00 pm - 3.00 pm on Thursdays (during school term). All levels welcome and voices are used to help clarify, support and encourage understanding of Auslan (FREE activity).
The Ballarat East Neighbourhood House is also working with Auslan In the West to provide Deaf Awareness Training to the Ballarat Community (At cost activity).
Please ensure you have registered online for one or all of our Auslan focused activities.
Please be aware that this activity of hosted by volunteers. They are Auslan Enthusiasts and lifelong learners. However, they are not fluent and may use a variety of signs. Our volunteers are keen to learn more signs, adjust signs to community needs and further understand the culture of the language and people who use it. Feedback welcome.
