This beautiful 16 inch by 16 inch DEAF Art Wall calendar for 2008 is now available at Silverfish Books. Consisting of reprints of 12 original paintings and displaying the artistic talents of 6 deaf artists in the country, the calendar is priced at PM30.00. Silverfish believes that the Mission deserves our support for their work so that we can all, in a small way, make a difference in the lives of the deaf in this country.In the words of the Mission, the calendar is unique in that it also incorporates some uniqueness of their language.
One of the visions of the Mission is to make a difference in the livelihood of deaf persons.
The Mission aims to:
Provide Career and Business Opportunities for the Deaf
Set up future businesses to be managed by the Deaf
Consultancy and Training for the Deaf

Form a Network with Employers who have hired Deaf Employees
