We are delighted to announce that the 12th edition of Formal and
Experimental Advances in Sign language Theory (FEAST) will take place
at the University of Amsterdam from 6 to 8 July 2026. It is organized
by SignLab Amsterdam, a cross-faculty research lab of the Amsterdam
Center for Language and Communication and the Institute for Logic,
Language and Computation at the University of Amsterdam.
FEAST is the regular forum to discuss formal approaches to sign
language grammar (in particular in the generative tradition),
experimental approaches to sign languages, and their interaction.
FEAST is held as a conference series every one or two years. The
official conference languages will be International Sign (IS), Dutch
Sign Language (NGT) and English.
The program for FEAST 2026, which will take place from 6 to 8 July at
the University of Amsterdam, is now available on the conference
website: https://sites.google.com/view/feast-2026/program
Registration for FEAST is open now until 21 June. You can register for
