Noel King: Curating Healing and Heritage Through Deaf Art

November 17, 2025

At the intersection of art, culture, and healing, Noel King is expanding the boundaries of deaf artistic expression. A PhD candidate in Expressive Therapies at Lesley University and Board-Certified Art Therapist, King also serves as Curator at the Washburn Arts Center Gallery under Gallaudet University’s Office of Arts, Culture, and Experience (ACE). As the world’s only university dedicated to the education of deaf and hard of hearing students, Gallaudet offers a vital foundation for Deaf culture, higher education, and leadership - a context that shapes every aspect of King’s work.
