Sharon Ann Dror Gives Presentation at RIT/NTID
Sharon Ann Dror, president of Jewish Deaf Community Center (JDCC), gave a presentation at the National Technical Institute of the Deaf (NTID) in Rochester, NY during their annual Jewish Deaf Celebration Week on March 30th-April 4th. Her presentation was “Passover: Accessible?” which covers making Passover Seders accessible to deaf participants.
The “JDCC Multimedia Passover Seder” DVD was shown as part of Dror's presentation on Wednesday, April 2nd. Dror discussed the innovative interactive multimedia involving use of large projection screens which was used in southern California for seven consecutive years and is a popular approach. The 2005 version was hosted by actress Marlee Matlin, led by DJ Kurs with Sharon Ann Dror and Joshua Soudakoff signing the songs, Rabbi Rebecca Dubowe, a deaf rabbi, gave the blessings, and Michael Soudakoff & Rachel Soudakoff asked the Four Questions. This updated version is open-captioned.
