The Deaf Club, Music venue in Mission District, San Francisco, United States.

The Deaf Club occupied the upper floor of a building on Valencia Street in the Mission District, reached by several flights of stairs from the street. It was the San Francisco Club for the Deaf's hall, rented nightly for punk shows from December 1978 to mid-1980. The room held a stage, a bar and a house DJ booth.

Daphne Hanrahan, manager of The Offs, spotted a "Hall for Rent" sign across from La Cumbre and rented the former San Francisco Club for the Deaf on Valencia Street for $250 a night. The first show on 9 December 1978 featured The Offs, The Mutants and On The Rag. It closed after about 18 months, facing noise complaints and inspections by police, fire and health officials.

The space welcomed deaf music enthusiasts into the punk scene, creating a place where they could gather and participate fully. Visitors felt the music through floor vibrations and visual feedback, making the experience accessible and inclusive for all attendees.

The hall was rented by the night from the San Francisco Club for the Deaf, whose caretaker Bill handled the deal; Daphne Hanrahan, manager of The Offs, arranged the booking after spotting a "Hall for Rent" sign on the fire escape. The space sat on Valencia Street near 16th Street and the Roxie Theater, and the noise abatement patrol, police, fire and health departments visited it during its 18 months.

The building began as a deaf people's clubhouse in the 1930s, and deaf regulars kept watching television with the sound off while punk shows ran. According to artist Winston Smith, they put their hands on the table to feel the music, and Penelope Houston of The Avengers recalled them dancing to the vibrations.
