what attendees are saying
A rewarding experience! Andrea’s vision for an inclusive space is exactly what our community needs!
“I’ve had the privilege of attending and volunteering at Deaf Events & Beyond. It was a truly wonderful and rewarding experience! Andrea’s vision to create an inclusive and safe space for individuals and their families, while also educating and welcoming the wider community, is truly remarkable. This is exactly the kind of initiative we need.”
— Dee, Author & Creative Director
Our family attends this event every year, and I always look forward to bringing my grandchildren. They love it so much that they never want to leave!
“One of their favorite parts is learning how to sign their names, which is such a wonderful experience. As for me, I absolutely love the culture—everything from the delicious food to the lively music. It’s also heartwarming to see the hearing community engage and try to communicate. The organizers always ensure that everyone is happy and well taken care of. Every event is worth every penny spent. Keep up the amazing work!”
