WAAD & ASLIA (WA) Announcement

Patti: hello, I’m Patti Levitzke-Gray from the board the Western Australian Association of the Deaf (WAAD) Christy: and I'm Christy Filipich, President of ASLIA (WA) the professional association for Auslan interpreters. Patti: We have some exciting news for you. We've been working in partnership and have put forward a proposal to… who? Christy: We asked the WA Museum Boorla Bardip (plenty of stories) and let them know that the Deaf Community has plenty of stories as well, so we put in a submission asking to showcase those stories from the WA Deaf Community. Patti: And we’re excited and pleased to let you know that the WA museum accepted our proposal! The proposal is about the WA Deaf Community and Auslan, so we have decided to call this exhibition ‘Auslan: Now and Then’. Christy: It's very exciting! Patti: Hooray! Christy: The exhibition will be held on the 18th and 19th of September, the start of National Week of Deaf People. Patti: That's right, and now we need your help. We're focusing this exhibition on Western Australia, Deaf, and Auslan. If you have any photos, information, stories, items like… Christy: Things like T-shirts from Australian Deaf Games here in WA, in Perth. Patti: Related to Deaf. So, if you do have something please take a photo of it, and what's important is to tell us the story about the item. It's not enough just to have the photo, we need to know why that item is important too. You can email submissions to events@waad.org.au. When is the cut-off? Christy: We need those submissions in by April 19th. Patti: So, remember this can be about Deaf people, about Auslan, sports, anything - as long as the focus is on WA, the Deaf Community, the use of Auslan over the last 100 years or so. We're really excited to have this exhibition ready on the 18th and 19th of September 2021. Christy: But we do need to remind you that we cannot accept all of the submissions to be in the exhibition. Once we receive those submissions, we will have to go through them and also follow the advice that we receive from the museum to choose the items for the exhibition. Patti: That's right, so thank you so much for your help in submitting items but we then have to follow the advice that we get from the WA museum to ensure that it will be a really great exhibit. Any questions please contact us. Christy: Thanks Patti: Thanks, bye.
