1880 THAT: Artists in Conversation image
Synopsis:

Join curator Laurie Britton Newell in conversation with artists Christine Sun Kim and Thomas Mader, whose exhibition ‘1880 THAT’ explores sign language, the right to communicate, and the lasting impact of the 1880 Milan Conference on deaf education.
 
Experience Wellcome Collection after hours in the first of our new Lates.
 
Inspired by our ‘1880 THAT’ exhibition, this deaf-led evening features performances, talks, workshops and tours exploring deaf identities, languages, bodies and histories.
 
Some events have limited spaces and will operate on a first come, first served basis, unless stated otherwise. If an event reaches capacity, access will be one in, one out, and some activities will be repeated throughout the evening.
