Dialogue in Silence^® is an experiential exhibition in which you step into ‘a different, silent world’.

You wear noise-cancelling headphones and are guided through the world of silence and nonverbal communication by deaf guides. They take you on a journey without a spoken word which is alive with communication. Experience the beauty of non-verbal communication, and learn how to speak with your hands and to hear with your eyes.

Learn from our experts in body and sign-language.

This is a journey which will enrich you with insights into the fascinating world of deaf people. Their ability to communicate offers you new ways of understanding.

In our 60 minute tours, deaf guides lead you in small groups through our especially sound-proofed exhibition rooms. You wear noise-cancelling headphones and step into a variety of situations which require non-verbal communication. Diving into this new world has the effect of reducing anxiety. It  clears up common misunderstandings and bridges the gap between the worlds of deaf people and others.

A great opportunity to overcome fears of communicating with deaf people.
