About Talking Hands
Talking Hands is an Education/Service based organization. We are here to teach SFA students American Sign Language and about deaf culture. The only requirement to join Talking Hands – you must have a genuine interest in learning about ASL and deaf culture! We are here to teach and learn together, to show students what the deaf community is all about, and to support the Deaf and Hard of Hearing program. Besides teaching, we also try to serve the deaf community whenever we are able to.
Main Events
Talking Hands holds an event or a topics workshop at least once a year. We also perform with the Lumberjack Marching Band during football season for the Star Spangled Banner at every home game. Talking hands travels occasionally with the Lumberjack Marching Band. In 2014, Talking hands traveled to the Battle of the Piney Woods game and performed on the field there.
