About the event
We are turning THREE and now more than ever, we believe that it is important for our artistic community to come together.
Every day members of our community with ties to MENA+ counties wake up with devastating news from the countries they’re connected to and beyond.
This reinforces our mission to bring these communities together and foster communication and community through the arts.
Join us in celebrating our incredible MENA Arts UK community where we will reflect on everything we have achieved together as well as look forward to the future.
Doors will open from 4pm.
Journalist and broadcaster Samira Ahmed will chair a panel including playwright Hannah Khalil and actor/activist Memet Ali Alabora reflecting on:
How do our creative community make work in the shadow of trauma?
How does our heritage define, hinder or enable us?
And in a region that is so diverse, how much do we have in common?
The panel will start at 4:30pm. Guests will have the opportunity to network & get refreshements followed by live music by Asya Satti.
We would like to gently remind all attendees of our values statement and our collective responsibility to ensure that our spaces are inclusive. If you have any access needs, please do let us know in advance.
