SUMMARY:P&P Live! & DCPL Present Zahra Marwan | WHERE BUTTERFLIES FILL THE SKY
DESCRIPTION:Zahra Marwan discusses her picture book WHERE BUTTERFLIES FILL THE SKY\, the true story of her and her family’s immigration from Kuwait. \n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\n\nPolitics and Prose is delighted to partner with the DC Public Library and the DC Public Library Foundation for a Beyond the Book program with author Zahra Marwan who presents her picture book WHERE BUTTERFLIES FILL THE SKY. \nBeyond the Book is a library literacy program that supports developing readers aged 5-8 to become successful and joyful readers. Beyond the Book is made possible by the generous support of the DC Public Library Foundation. More information about Beyond the Book can be found here. \nThe first 50 people to register for the event and select the “Free Event Admission + Free Book” option at registration will receive a complimentary copy of the book for their home library (one book per family\, please). Recipients of the complimentary copy will pick their book up in the Children’s department at the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Library\, 901 G St. NW\, Washington\, DC\, beginning Thursday\, June 30. Please note that complimentary book copies must be picked up by Saturday\, July 9. These books are generously donated by the District of Columbia Public Library Foundation. \nAbout the book: \nAs a child\, Zahra Marwan left the only home she’d ever known in Kuwait for a strange and unfamiliar land named New Mexico. Her father – and as such\, her siblings and herself – were deemed stateless citizens of Kuwait\, unable to obtain an education\, healthcare or even get married. Leaving behind the familiar turquoise of the sea and the faded greens and yellows of the desert\, Zahra is surprised to find similarities in the magical vistas of her new home. Although she misses the comfort of her aunties and the beauty of Kuwait’s butterfly-filled skies\, New Mexico surprises with its own wondrous landscapes\, and new friends who help Zahra feel like she belongs. \nZahra Marwan was born in Kuwait\, and moved to Albuquerque with her family when she was a child. She studied visual arts in France and works primarily in Illustration. She currently lives in Albuquerque\, New Mexico\, and works in her studio at the Harwood Art Center. Her watercolor-and-ink illustrations incorporate Kuwaiti tendencies into her daily life. \n\n\n\n\nhttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/pp-live-dcpl-present-zahra-marwan-where-butterflies-fill-the-sky-tickets-353956171437
