Thousands of families in the Northwest have been touched by Signing Time, the hit PBS show that introduced American Sign Language to children across the nation, and now it is coming to Bellevue.

Signing Time’s Rachel Coleman will be in concert May 4, starting at 6 p.m., at Highland Community Center in Bellevue, 14224 Bel-Red Road.

Coleman, who co-created Signing Time as a means to teach children of all abilities how to communicate using American Sign Language (ASL), has seen firsthand the miracles that can come from using sign language. As the mother of a daughter who is deaf, and another who has cerebral palsy and spina bifida, Coleman has spent the last few years making sign language fun and accessible for all children through the Signing Time series.

Tickets for the show are $12 for ages 16 and up, and $7.50 for ages 15 and under. For tickets, visit https://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/227828
