SUMMARY:Arabic Language Meetup - Seattle
DESCRIPTION:This group is created as a way for those who are studying and have a foundation in Arabic to come and practice their speaking and listening skills in lively conversation. \nThat being said\, we are flexible to different levels (advanced beginner/low intermediate up to advanced) and different eastern dialects (Levantine and Egyptian primarily). If you are a beginner and only have sufficient ability to understand a conversation (or a decent portion of it) and would like to attend for listening practice\, you’re more than welcome.

SUMMARY:ArabishWay Circle Time Series (2019-2020)
DESCRIPTION:Bring your little one down and join Laila for a circle time that will have songs\, stories and activities all in Arabic followed by snack and craft time. \nWe will meet once each month and each month will have a theme: (September: alphabet\, October: numbers\, etc.) and the books\, songs and activities will correlate with this theme. \nCircle time is great for non-native speakers who want to expose their child to another language as well as native speakers who want to expose their children to Arabic outside of the home.  It’s also been a great place for people to meet and get to know other families. \nWe will have the meeting room from 10am – 11:30am.  The circle time will run from 10:15am-10:45am followed by informal snack/craft which can be done in class or completed at home. \nRepeats monthly on the 2nd Thursday of the month. \nThis circle time is geared towards toddlers and early preschool but all ages are welcome and will enjoy the activities!

SUMMARY:Seffarine - ZAG Concert Series
DESCRIPTION:Seffarine’s international blend of sounds features soulful Moroccan singer Lamiae Naki and flamenco guitarist Nat Hulskamp. Their music embraces and extends Naki’s rich heritage\, which spans from Moorish Spain to the Sahara\, by mixing Arabic Andalusi music with Hulskamp’s dynamic flamenco guitar\, the grooves of acclaimed percussionist Mimy Fiaindratovo Manavihare. These diverse backgrounds meld into an intoxicating blend of ancient and modern that Bass Player Magazine describes as a gorgeous intersection of Spanish flamenco\, Arabic and Andalusian music\, Persian classical\, and jazz. \nIn 2015\, Seffarine was awarded a grant from the Regional Arts and Culture Council to travel to Spain to record their original music in collaboration with living legends of flamenco music\, including Diego del Morao and Tomasa La Macanita. The record gained Seffarine international acclaim when it placed in top world music charts around the globe\, including Afribuku’s Top 13 African Releases and the Transglobal World Music Charts\, a panel of 43 world music experts from 28 countries. In 2017\, Seffarine was honored to be selected by the Western Arts Alliance (WAA) as one of three Launchpad Artists. Seffarine is based in Portland\, OR and has been playing to enthusiastic audiences from the Western US to as far as Indonesia. \nSeffarine takes its name from the ancient metalworking square in Lamiae’s home city of Fes\, Morocco. Her family is well known in the Seffarine as master metalworkers continuing the tradition today. The square dates back to the 9th century and is famous for the complex rhythms that can be heard from the blacksmiths’ hammers.

Art critic Mark Jensen in the Washington Post: Manal Deeb “superimposes photographs\, calligraphy and fabric patterns on her face\, constructing a visual metaphor for how women’s identities are overlaid with societal expectations and political circumstances\,” blending realism and abstraction. This will be her debut in the Pacific Northwest.  \nWHAT ELSE: We’ll also show work from Legendary Painter Alfredo Arreguin (who has work in The Smithsonian)\, Professor Emeritus Ruben Trejo (who also has work in the Smithsonian)\, art professors Gordon Wilson\, Rob Fifield\, and Rob McKirdie\, Michael Dinning\, Karen Mobley\, Jim Dhillon\, Oregon artist Shelli Walters\, local legend Ric Gendron\, and beloved local artist Melissa Cole. \nWHEN:First Friday\, December 6th\, 5-8pm. \nWHERE: First Friday in Kendall Yards happens throughout the Kendall Yards Business District\, but has always been centered at Marmot Art Space (1202 Summit Pkwy\, in Adams Alley\, right across the alley from Craftsman Cellars and 3Ninjas). \nWHY ATTEND:It’s another amazing art party in Kendall Yards! This is the best night of each month\, a great opportunity to get out of the house and visit with your neighbors in Spokane’s most exciting neighborhood. Come for the art\, stay for the food and drink! Or vice versa. You choose – either way you’ll have a great time!

SUMMARY:Bedouine at Triple Door
DESCRIPTION:When you listen to the love songs of LA-based Bedouine\, you might be reminded of Karen Dalton’s world-wise voice or the breathy seduction of Minnie Riperton’s vocals\, the easy cool of French ye-ye singers\, and the poetry of Joan Baez. Her folk is nomadic\, wandering across time and space\, and on the likes of new song “Dizzy” meander into danceable jams. On first discovery you may ask whether they’re dated to 2019\, or whether you’ve uncovered some forgotten classic. It makes sense that singer-songwriter Azniv Korkejian’s arrival – both musically and personally – on her second record has been influenced by her own wanderlust\, displacement\, and curiosity. \nBedouine Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/BedouineMusic/

SUMMARY:In Plain Sight:  Various Artists including Hayv Kahraman (Iraq\, born 1981)
DESCRIPTION:This gallery is closed due to COVID-19 until further notice.\n\nThis group exhibition engages artists whose work addresses narratives\, communities\, and histories that are typically hidden or invisible in our public space (both conceptually and literally defined). The presenting artists approach the exhibition’s theme from a range of directions\, varying across all media as well as aesthetic and conceptual contexts. Works encompass deliberately activist endeavors and direct documentation; the unpacking of individual histories excluded due to race\, ethnicity\, or class; explorations of coded language for protection\, secrecy\, or both; the illumination of invisible or covert systems of labor\, exploitation\, and capitalist control; and translation through surreal\, oblique\, or fantastical frameworks.\n\n\n\n\nThe exhibition expands into the entire museum\, including interstitial/transitional spaces\, and activates external sites through programs\, performances\, and community partnerships. Site becomes a material through which what we have heretofore considered the complete\, authoritative story is expanded and retold.\nParticipating artists: Sadie Barnette (U.S.\, born 1984)\, Sanford Biggers (U.S.\, born 1970)\, Andrea Bowers (U.S.\, born 1965)\, Tom Burr (U.S.\, born 1963)\, Fiona Connor (New Zealand\, born 1981)\, william cordova (Peru\, born 1971)\, Beatriz Cortez (El Salvador\, born 1970)\, Hayv Kahraman (Iraq\, born 1981)\, Nicole Miller (U.S.\, born 1982)\n\n\n\nHenry Art Gallery\nNovember 23\, 2019 – April 26\, 2020*

SUMMARY:Arabic Language Meetup - Seattle
DESCRIPTION:This group is created as a way for those who are studying and have a foundation in Arabic to come and practice their speaking and listening skills in lively conversation. \nThat being said\, we are flexible to different levels (advanced beginner/low intermediate up to advanced) and different eastern dialects (Levantine and Egyptian primarily). If you are a beginner and only have sufficient ability to understand a conversation (or a decent portion of it) and would like to attend for listening practice\, you’re more than welcome.
