RI ASL CLUB / Events and announcements

The RI ASL Club is part of ASLA and affords students the opportunity to experience a voice-off environment with classmates, students from other levels and members of the Deaf community.

Each year, RI ASL Club organizes events to allow students from different levels to be together, to meet members of the Deaf community, and practice signing in a relaxed environment.

  1. WE ARE OFFERING AN AFTERNOON CLASS THAT WILL MEET TWICE A WEEK
    ON MONDAYS AND THURSDAYS FROM 4:00 TO 5:30. COURSE DATES ARE:
    APRIL 26, May  3, 7, 10, 17, 31, JUNE 4, 7, 11, 14.

  2. The level 19 class visited RWU and joined with the RWU ASL Club for ASL table on Wed, April 11 from 7 to 8:00. There were 16 of us from level 1, 2, 4, 5, and 19. It was a fun time.

  3. We have three Immersions this coming year - May, July and August.

    The spring ASL Immersion has been planned. We have had to move the date to May 12 and 13. The field trip on Sat will be in Newport, RI.  We will have an elegant lunch on the dinner train as we tour the island and then a one hour excursion by boat. Later, we will go on a walking tour. The price for the two-day Immersion has been reduced to $150.00. For Sat. only, it is $125.00

  4. Friday, April 28, 6 to 8 pm will be our first movie night. We will be showing “The Hammer.” This is about Matt Hamill, who is an Ultimate Fighter. It is not about fighting, however, but about his life and the obstacles he has had to overcome. Seating is limited for this, so students must contact Manny to reserve a space.

Our RI ASL Club president is Kimberly Rose, a level 12 student.
