American Sign Language Storytime

Join us at Brower Park Library for part of BPL’s Multilingual Storytime Series.

Brower Park will host an American Sign Language (ASL) Storytime. This storytime will be led by a Deaf performer and will be voice-off, meaning the presenter will be using ASL to read the story, with writing and sound projected behind her. Whether you are part of a multilingual family or an excited learner, we encourage you to come be a part of this wonderful storytime experience!

For more information call 718.230.2227 or go to bklynlib.org and search “Multilingual Storytimes” in our calendar
