Speak Volumes: Meet-and-Greet in Seattle on Aug 8th

The Living Tongues Team is coming to Seattle and we would love to meet you! Our “Speak Volumes” event series is all about raising awareness about endangered languages, and why it is important to document them before it’s too late. You are invited to join us for an evening of community-building and engaging discussion at the Wagner Education Center, located at the beautiful Center for Wooden Boats.

• Living Tongues founder Dr. Gregory Anderson and Director of Research Dr. K. David Harrison will speak about their work as linguists who have traveled the globe to document dozens of languages on the verge of extinction.

• Living Tongues team members will discuss innovative tech solutions such as our Talking Dictionaries mobile software that helps community members easily create tools that help languages live on for generations to come.

• Video clips from recent fieldwork around the world will be shown.

We are excited to meet passionate individuals who want to get involved with language preservation efforts and support initiatives led by Living Tongues Institute for Endangered Languages. You will also get the opportunity to meet other avid language enthusiasts and ask questions about our work!

Mark your calendars for Thursday, August 8th from 7:00-9:00PM.
