Deaf Event
I went to the deaf event at No-Li Brewhouse on 3/7/2020. I was nervous about, going but my nerves calmed down when I got there. I tried signing more this time than when I was at Starbucks. There were a lot of interpreters there. Those who were are deaf went to another area of the restaurant. I ended up around the interpreters. I talked to them and tried to sign while I was speaking. They all were…

Deaf Event
I went to the Starbucks on Friday 3/6/2020 from 5 pm – 7 pm. I got there early because I was nervous and wanted to make sure I got the address correct. Everyone working there knew all the deaf people who come in. They do this deaf night on the first Friday of every month. I was so nervous because I don’t feel entirely comfortable signing to other people. I was so worried about doing the wrong…

So, I'm an ASL interpreting major and I have to go to a Deaf event and interview a Deaf individual for an assignment but I feel like I would be bothering that person or that it would be awkward (also, I consider myself to be socially awkward so....). Anyway I was wondering if you have any advice or possibly just reassurances :)
People at Deaf events usually understand that (if there is a school teaching ASL) there will be students who are learning ASL and that they will be attending at least some of them for credit. They also tend to be super welcoming to new people, and understand that it’s gonna be awkward for them at first.
This is to say: If you are polite about it, and aren’t asking questions that are too personal, it shouldn’t be bothering them. Deaf people tend to be more blunt and will let you know if they don’t want to do the interview.
As for advice: Dont just go up to someone with the intent to interview them. Hang out with a few people first, get to know them, and if they seem comfortable with you then you can start thinking about asking some questions. Plus you’ll have the start of some new friendships!
Hope that helps, and if it didn’t feel free to send another ask our way!

Anyone know about any deaf events in Jacksonville other than DPAN? DPAN conflicts with my work schedule this month. 😔
