I am writing to thank you for your generous support for our
project and attending one of our previous events before the pandemic. We
did our best to keep our project running despite all the challenges
associated with the pandemic.
I would like to invite you to our upcoming event, (https://www.facebook.com/events/278009564461513),
an art exhibition and Contemporary Arabic Music Concert on Saturday,
June 4th, featuring Basel Zayed, a unique musician and composer from
Jerusalem, Palestine.(https://www.youtube.com/user/Palsadeh/featured) The Art in Exile ( https://www.facebook.com/craig.milanesi/videos/10157661037723529)
exhibition presents 70 original paintings by ten artists who reside in
refugee camps in Jordan. The paintings capture memories of a lost home,
village, or animals that were once part of a new distant life.
I hope you join us at our event on June 4th to enjoy Arabic Music,
desserts, beverages and most importantly a falafel wrap.
Regards,
Ayman Halaseh
