West Australian Deaf Arts

ABOUT WADA

West Australian Deaf Arts (WADA) is an exciting initiative where Deaf, Hard of Hearing and Hearing people come together to explore the Arts.

WADA aims to share and pass on an understanding of Deaf culture to the Hearing world and we encourage people with no Arts background or experience, and those that have experience in the Arts and would like to share and grow their passion, to join us.

WADA is a fantastic opportunity to explore your creativity and imagination in a supportive and inclusive environment.
