Program

ASL DrawNow! Online! with Nic Annette Miller and Joyce Hom

November 20, 2022, 1:00pm – 2:30pm

Join teaching artists Joyce Hom and Nic Annette Miller for an online participatory drawing workshop presented in American Sign Language (ASL) and inspired by our current exhibition Ecce Homo: The Drawings of General Idea. The family-friendly activity will focus on the doodle styles and bright color palette from drawings by General Idea, a collective trio who lived and worked together as part of the Toronto arts and theater community.

Please note this online workshop will be in ASL with no voice interpretation. It is free and open to the signing community.
