Deaffest

We held a Young Deaffest Poster Competition in 2015 asking young deaf artists aged 11-16 to create an eye catching poster for Young Deaffest 2016. Many thanks to all of those who sent in their wonderful posters – we have received an incredible number of high quality creative posters! Click here to meet the judging panel.

Deaffest has a comedy theme this year! So if you are looking for a weekend of laughter, come along to the festival!

Enjoy film screenings from across the globe, workshops for adults and youngsters, as well as an exhibition showcasing the work of talented deaf artists and photographers. There will also be a multitude of stalls run by UK and Internationally based artists, designers, charities and businesses.

To soak up the creative atmosphere this year, keep an eye on our website for information and to book onto our workshops. We look forward to seeing you there!
