We are happy and excited to announce that Na Laga’at in collaboration with Kibbutzim College of Education is opening the first class of Israel’s first educational center for the performing arts for the Deaf, hard of hearing, blind and the visually impaired.
We invite you to take part in professional and accessible studies which will introduce you to the world of theater and allow you to acquire tools and skills in the basics of acting, movement, writing and analyzing texts, personal work, improvisation and more.
The curriculum consists of two programs, one for people who are blind or visually impaired and another for people who are deaf or hard of hearing. The studies are accessible and adapted to the needs of the students and are held in small groups, with the guidance of professionals from the various acting schools in Israel. The studies take place once a week in the afternoon and evening at the Na Laga’at center in the port of Jaffa. School year consists of two semesters, 13 sessions in each semester. The studies will take place from November 2022 until June 2023.
The program for deaf and hard of hearing will be held on Sundays 17:30–21:30.
The program for the blind and visually impaired will be held on Wednesdays 17:30–21:30.
A number of scholarships (full or partial tuition) will be awarded by Na Laga’at, the Association of the Deaf in Israel and the Center for the Blind to those who will be accepted for studies. In addition, there is a discount for Na Laga’at employees, members of the Association of the Deaf in Israel and members of the Center for the Blind.
Let’s open a new door to a creative and fascinating world!
Registration: Tuesday 26.7.22 – Thursday 01.09.22. Introduction meetings will be held during September 2022.
