Happy 2013 from Deaf Arts Network and Arts Access Victoria!

DAN produced 12 projects last year, employed 6 casual Deaf Artists, and presented 5 projects to full house of audiences! Now we have a fresh new year ahead of us here in the arts!

Deaf Arts Network with Arts Access Victoria are working on funding applications for more Deaf Can Dance workshops to be delivered across Victoria, The Delta Project to develop Collisions bringing it to a higher level, and The Australian Theatre of the Deaf to produce shows & tours. Fingers & toes crossed for positive outcomes!

If you missed some DAN eNews, you can find them on DAN website, and don't forget to Like DAN's Facebook Page because we regularly update it with events more often than eNews. Go down to the bottom for the links to DAN website, Facebook and eNews Subscription pages.

Have a great year!

"Hate"

Auslan Interpreted
Friday 8 March 7.30pm
The Malthouse
113 Sturt Street, Southbank

There’s nothing so dramatic as a weekend with the family…

A storm shakes the Gleason homestead, but it’s the tempest inside that spells the family’s end. 25 years after its premiere, Stephen Sewell’s portrait of a monstrous patriarch who would be the country’s king remains startlingly relevant. An uncanny sense of regression hangs over an all-too-familiar portrait of Australian politics in which power, fear and violence are inextricable.

Information & Booking go to website

Dance of Death 1 May 7.30pm
The Dragon 10 July 7.30pm
