I agree, set it positively.
 
We are having a workshop on X date in Washington DC on SignWriting.  Interested parties are asked to inquire at.... I will try to contact two of the community colleges that have ASL courses and see about finding space to do it.

SignWriting List
September 4, 2009

Very true...I agree this method will work...the people do not have to be signwriters already...they can be "generally interested" and the workshop can be setup...it is a matter of finding enough people in the area who might attend...if a local school or university can setup the workshop that is even better...Val ;-)

If so, I don't know how much asking here will get enough people. Maybe ask people in the area. I don't think that it would be needed to be that they are SignWriters. Maybe just interested is enough? Also, I have found that we Americans (especially Deaf Americans) are followers in general. So instead of saying would you be interested in maybe having a workshop (or whatever) in Washington DC, maybe we can ask people in the area "we will be having a workshop on SignWriting in Washington DC, would you like to go?" If they ask, when say that we are getting a feel for who is interested so that we know how best to set it up, and get contact info. If the person asks what is SignWriting, then say that it's a way to write sign languages and what better way to see what it is then to
 come. The reason I say this that I have come to see that conferences and workshops only work out best when there is a strong support and attendence in the place where it is held. After that happens, then people from afar will come and fill in.
