Join some alumni from our ASL for the Arts classes in partnership with the Western PA School for the Deaf and art lovers who are Deaf as we discuss why learning ASL is not only essential, but also fun. ABOUT THE DEAI WORKSHOP SERIES The Greater Pittsburgh Arts Council offers this workshop series focusing on diversity, equity, accessibility, and inclusion (DEAI), hosted by GPAC Diversity Catalyst Cecile Shellman. Cecile (she/her/hers) is a long-time advocate for DEAI practices in the arts. This series hopes to unite the Pittsburgh arts and culture community and the public to discuss “uncomfortable” topics that must be unpacked and addressed to support a vibrant and equitable city of arts. Hosted on Wednesdays over lunch, join us for some frank discussions in a safe space.
