Dear Friend,

I invite you to join us Monday, April 29th, at 6 PM ET as we continue acknowledging Arab American Heritage Month. Monday's conversation will focus on how our community relates to life's joy and struggles through language and art. You'll hear from award-winning Arab American artists Naomi Shihab Nye and Heather Raffo about their chosen forms of expression, the role their art plays in providing hope, and their response to the crisis of worldwide injustice and inequity.

Art is integral to connection and Arab American artists are culture bearers helping us to better understand ourselves and our world. As art is always informed by the artists' experiences and identities, Arab American artists’ often provide a healing space for Arab Americans while educating others about the community’s heritage, narrative, hopes, and dreams. 

You may register for what will be an extraordinary conversation here.

Please register here to receive the dial-in information for the Zoom happening Monday, April 29th, 2024 from 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. ET. After you register, you will automatically get the link/dial-in information for the conversation. 

I hope you join us.

Best,

Maya
