About this event

The ASL Program at the Department of Linguistics proudly presents Peter Cook and Kenny Lerner of the Flying Words Project.

Peter Cook and Kenny Lerner are pioneering artists of ASL poetry, blending American Sign Language, movement, visual theater, and spoken word. For more than 40 years, their internationally acclaimed performances have created vivid, three-dimensional poetry accessible to Deaf and hearing audiences, helping shape ASL poetry as a distinctive artistic form.

Peter Cook is a senior lecturer in the Program in Linguistics at Princeton University. Kenny Lerner is a retired senior lecturer of history at RIT/NTID in Rochester, NY.

ASL/English interpretation will be provided.
