Northwest Folklife Festival

The schedule isn’t out but I’m not going to hold my breath that they will have any Arab performers. If I am pleasantly surprised I’ll post it here . . .

UPDATE: No surprise:  three belly dancing acts one of whom is possibly of Middle Eastern descent. WTF!

But it’s May 27 at 6:30 if you want to go.
