PNC American Sign Language Club Silent Dinner

Purdue University North Central American Sign Language Club will host a Silent Dinner on Thursday, March 28 from 5:30 to 8 p.m. at Culver's Restaurant, 3966 Frontage Road, Michigan City. The event is open to ASL students as well as all community members.

Silent Dinner participants are asked to use ASL only for conversation and to place orders – a student may translate orders into English for the server or participants may point to the menu or write out an order. This is an opportunity to use ASL for conversation. Participants can be ASL beginners or fluent, or simply interested in knowing more.
