Click To Play

I look forward to celebrating Bernard Bragg 's 80th Birthday Bash in Kellogg Conference Center at Gallaudet University. He was my inspiringly educator and director when I was a student in Deaf Studies Department at California State University, Northridge. I remember when I was a little girl; I was in awe to see Bernard Bragg up on the stage translating Shakespeare from English text to sign language. The tickets for the Bash will be contributed to NTD and NAD. Please buy ticket now because it's deadline by September 30th. Come over and celebrate with us.
