This year we are thrilled to partner with @yahalaseattle and @palestineforeverfest – Ya Hala will be hosting a special community space at the festival to foster an intimate and familiar sense of home for those who know Palestine and the Levant. It is a new and engaging experience for those less familiar, and all are welcome.
