On Valentine’s Day\, join us to share the love\, to read from twelve months-worth of exquisite poems with the series curator Lena Khalaf Tuffaha and Tatreez artist Hala Saleh.

SUMMARY:Circle Mirror Transformation
DESCRIPTION:Circle Mirror Transformation is a case study of strangers willing to take a chance and open themselves to the revelations\, indignities\, hilarity\, and heartbreak of an amateur acting class in a community center classroom. In doing so\, they transform the space into the anti-Zoom room; it becomes a quietly poignant reminder of the power of being present with one another\, a reflection of the stories we share through the silliness and the silences\, an open invitation to partake in the transformative and sublime power of play. \nCircle Mirror Transformation premiered at Playwrights Horizons in October 2009. The play received Obie Awards for Best New American Play\, Performance\, Ensemble\, and Directing; and was nominated for the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Play and Outstanding Director of a Play. \n  \n*This play has an Arab character and Arab actors \n

DESCRIPTION:8 hours of instruction with Esraa Warda\, right here in Seattle! \nEsraa Warda is a prominent Algerian-American dance performer and educator based in New York\, specializing in traditional and popular Algerian dance forms like Raï\, Chaoui\, and Assimi.

It often explores themes of subversion\, exile\, love\, and loss\, reflecting the region’s social struggles. We will delve into body-rhythm connection to embody Algeriann Raï’s signature cathartic “groove”. \nSaturday\, February 15 from 4:30-6:30 pm: Algerian Chaoui Dance\nThis workshop will explore a traditional dance from one sub-group of the indigenous people (Amazigh) of North Africa\, known as the Chaouiya. This group is home to the region of the Aures mountains in East Algeria. Chaoui dance is maternal and grounded\, truly symbolic of this tribe’s respect for the divine energy of nature and agriculture. Famously known for the “bounce” of the belly\, this style is danced with strong isolations in the pelvis area. \nSunday\, February 16 from 2-4 pm: Algerian Assimi (Algeroise) Dance\nAssimi\, or “danse Algéroise\,” is an Andalusian-influenced classical dance from Algiers\, danced at the opening of wedding processions by family matriarchs to usher in the evening. This graceful dance embodies the dignity\, virtue\, and femininity of Algerian women. Students will learn to dance with intention\, charm\, and meditative coordination of “les mouchoirs” (handkerchiefs) in hand. \nSunday: February 16 from 4:30-6:30 pm: Lecture: Key Concepts of Algerian Dance\nEnhance your dance experience with an engaging lecture and conversation that explores the social\, historical\, and aesthetic aspects of the Algerian dances we have practiced over the weekend. This session provides students with an authentic\, critical introduction to key concepts essential for understanding and participating in Algerian dance culture(s) \n  \nStefanie Fatooh\, qabilaseattle@gmail.com \n

SUMMARY:Flavors of Somalia: Cooking Class
DESCRIPTION:Located in the horn with the longest coastline in mainland Africa\, Somalia was a powerhouse in the spice trade for centuries and a common stopping point for sailing vessels from all over the world. This allowed indigenous Somali cuisine to expand and incorporate the influence of Indian\, East African\, Italian\, and Middle Eastern flavors\, leading to a delicious and unique culinary tradition. Join local chef Ifrah Ahmed in class\, where she will teach you about the cuisine of Somalia and how to make some of her favorite classic dishes. On the menu: suqaar digaag (spiced chicken and pepper saute); bariis(Somali rice); sambuus (fried triangular dumplings filled with beef and vegetables); and basbaas (Somali-style hot sauce). \nPlease note: some classes can be adjusted for students with dietary restrictions\, but many cannot. If you’re vegetarian\, pescatarian\, or gluten-free\, you can use the drop-down menu on our events page to view the best classes to fit your needs. If a class you’re interested in doesn’t appear in that filtered view\, please email us before registering and we’ll see if the class’s menu can be modified.

SUMMARY:A Conversation with Ta‑Nehisi Coates
DESCRIPTION:From the bestselling author of Between the World and Me comes a new collection of visionary essays\, The Message. Follow Ta-Nehisi Coates as he journeys to three resonant sites of conflict in the world to explore how the stories we tell—and the ones we don’t—shape our realities. \nWritten at a dramatic moment in American and global life\, this work from one of the country’s most important writers is about the urgent need to untangle ourselves from the destructive nationalist myths that shape our world—and our own souls—and embrace the liberating power of even the most difficult truths. \nAll tickets\, with the exception of a limited number of Pay What You Can tickets\, include a copy of The Message.

SUMMARY:No Other Land (in person) - NWFF
DESCRIPTION:Nominated for Best Documentary Feature at the 2025 Academy Awards!  \nBasel Adra\, a young Palestinian activist from Masafer Yatta\, has been fighting his community’s mass expulsion by the Israeli occupation since childhood. Basel documents the gradual erasure of Masafer Yatta\, as soldiers destroy the homes of families – the largest single act of forced transfer ever carried out in the occupied West Bank. He crosses paths with Yuval\, an Israeli journalist who joins his struggle\, and for over half a decade they fight against the expulsion while growing closer. Their complex bond is haunted by the extreme inequality between them: Basel\, living under a brutal military occupation\, and Yuval\, unrestricted and free. This film\, by a Palestinian-Israeli collective of four young activists\, was co-created during the darkest\, most terrifying times in the region\, as an act of creative resistance to Apartheid and a search for a path towards equality and justice. \nSynopsis courtesy of mTuckman Media\n \nThu Feb 20: 7.30pm PDT\nFri Feb 21: 7.00pm PDT\nSat Feb 22: 4.00pm PDT\, 7.00pm PDT\nFri Feb 28: 7.00pm PDT\nSat Mar 01: 4.00pm PDT\, 7.00pm PDT\nSun Mar 02: 4.00pm PDT
