Northwest Arkansas Deaf Expo

A Deaf Expo is a large public gathering designed to showcase Deaf culture, American Sign Language (ASL), and the wide range of resources and opportunities available within the Deaf and hard of hearing community. The event typically includes exhibitor booths featuring technology, interpreting services, educational programs, advocacy organizations, and businesses that serve or are owned by Deaf individuals. Attendees often enjoy live entertainment, workshops, cultural presentations, and performances in ASL, such as storytelling, comedy, theater, or poetry. Deaf Expos also create space for community networking, raising awareness, and celebrating the richness of Deaf culture, while welcoming hearing allies to learn and engage respectfully.
