In this study it was realized that the deaf culture is constructed in three ways: the translation of classics for sign language, the adaptive and creative. We chose to work on two of them: the translation of the classic fairy tale to sign language and creative production, with the texts made by the participants. During the readings and workshops can understand the process that is established subjectively, through which culture is risen from the interaction between the deaf during contações stories and existential trajectory of deaf culture
