The Interpreter Preparation Program's class of 2024 is gaining practical experience by visiting various sites in Las Vegas. The students are practicing their interpreting skills during these tours, enhancing their readiness for community work post-graduation.

Recently, the group visited the Lion Habitat and plans to explore the Mob Museum soon. Their past visits have included The Bodies Exhibit, The Springs Preserve, and the Neon Museum. Additionally, they recently interpreted a performance of "Mousetrap" by Signature Productions.

These activities not only provide valuable training for the students but also help venues become aware of interpreter services available for Deaf guests.
