We are thrilled that we are able to offer opportunities to learn American Sign Language and Spanish over the next six months at the Simpson Library, thanks to a Spark! Connecting Community Grant from the Vermont Community Foundation. The first opportunity is a weekly ASL class that is starting next Tuesday: 

Tuesdays, 5:30- 6:30 pm ASL Class and Social Hour with Tiana Baca and Stuart Soboleski 

This class will combine self-paced, online lessons with weekly in-person practice facilitated by Stuart Soboleski and Tiana Baca. We’ll grow our skills week by week and help one another build confidence communicating in ASL! We’ll also explore Deaf culture, history, and community and be joined by Deaf guest presenters.

This program is cumulative and we ask that participants commit to the full set of 20 classes.
