The workshops are designed to promote and provoke collaborative debate and discussion about the future of BSL in Scotland’s cultural and heritage sector. Each of the four collaborative workshops are designed to provoke questions around future Deaf Heritage spaces, BSL resources and the necessary infrastructure required to meet the ambitions of the BSL (Scotland) Act 2015.  

Informed by a Critical Heritage and Critical Design approach, workshops ask participants to engage in speculative activities, such as crafting a model Deaf Museum, playing Heritage Bingo, building a BSL Infrastructure with bricks, participatory-budgeting and using life-size silhouettes imagining the professional, cultural BSL roles still absent across Scotland.
