Deaf Clubs

About Deaf Clubs

In most cities, deaf and hard of hearing people established clubs that became centers for social life. Some Clubs owned their buildings, but most made do with rented clubroom over a downtown store or bar. A "Deaf Clubs" was more than a place for card games and conversation. Clubs hosted social events as varied as holiday parties, lectures, fundraisers, plays, and performances by traveling deaf comedians. Clubs also sponsored athletic envets and group outings.
