Deaf Explorer are a small team based in Birmingham. We are an arts organisation with a focus on access and inclusion. We develop the creative practice of Deaf artists and produce their work to reach new audiences and participants.

Our pioneering work in schools has provided Deaf role models, inspiring Deaf and hard of hearing young people at an early age. We have a strong track record of supporting theatre makers, choreographers & dancers as well as cross artforms, such as Visual Vernacular. In our efforts to remove barriers in the arts for Deaf creatives, we have also developed the work of visual artists, musicians, jewellery makers and digital artists.

We are creative producers and creative enablers, we connect Deaf artists and Deaf communities to the cultural sector. We have shared our expertise with many arts organisations. They include, Women and Theatre, Stan’s Café, The Birmingham Hippodrome, Autin Dance Theatre, Culture Central, China Plate, Art Reach, and recently Glass Museum in Stourbridge, where we are supporting Deaf volunteers.
