Description
Celebrating Pride Month – Interpreting in Queer Spaces – NSW
Join us for an unforgettable evening celebrating Queer Pride and taking a sneak peek behind (usually) closed doors.
Step outside of the typical 9-to-5 interpreting scenarios.
This event dives into the real, raw, and sometimes risqué experiences of interpreting in queer spaces.
Discover how boundaries are navigated and redefined – whether it’s at a fetish competition, on a throuple date, during hormone treatment, or in private play spaces.
To kick off the night we will have a bold, diverse panel of Queer Deaf & Hard-of-Hearing people sharing vulnerable and intimate stories. Moderated by NAATI CPDI Alex Jones, and wrapped up by an adventurous Q&A.
The remainder of the evening will be a relaxed social gathering.
Hosted in the brand-new Pride Centre of Newtown, this is your invitation to a safe, affirming, and unapologetically queer space. Explore the underground world of Queer Deaf life, and see how Interpreters & Deaf Community members work together so that they all thrive in their authentic identities.
Due to the intimate nature of this event, this invitation is limited to NAATI interpreters (Deaf & hearing) only. This event is only available in person.
Hosted by ASLITA NSW/ACT committee representatives: Leah Brown & Alex Jones.
Delivered in Auslan, with Auslan interpreters available.
$30 ASLITA members / $60 non members
