Many of us have different ways of communicating in different situations. We can contain many languages! But what is gained and what is lost when we move between languages? And how do people who don't share a language communicate? Three poets working in BSL, English and Scots explore their ideas, identities and languages through poetry. ASL interpretation will be provided during the event.
