Aid the Silent to Host Fully Deaf Accessible Music Festival

The Texas-based nonprofit Aid the Silent is set to put on its first completely deaf accessible music and art festival in San Antonio from May 20 to 21. The Good Vibrations Music and Art Festival will feature live captioning, ASL interpretation, T-coiling, vibrating backpacks, and a visual light show. Headliner for the music event will be singer-songwriter Ben Rector, whose most recent song "Brand New" topped Billboard's Top 100 chart.

The target audience includes people with hearing aids or cochlear implants, as well as those who communicate with the American Sign Language. The organization said in a press release that this festival "will set a new standard, not only providing accessibility but unique opportunities for sensory experiences to all persons with hearing disabilities." All proceeds from the event will benefit the four branches of Aid the Silent's mission: deaf ministry, deaf research, deaf education, and deaf resources.
