Join us as we enjoy the magic of traditional Arabic folktales – the lighthearted humor, adventure, deep morals, glittering rewards and insights into Muslim life as told by Omer Bajwa. The Arabian Nights will be the starting point as Omer weaves his way through the world of Arabic tales. There will be traditional Middle Eastern food to share and learn about after the program. This event will take place on Sunday, November 17 at 2:00 pm in the Rotary Room at the Main Library, 1080 Old Post Road. Registration is requested.
Presenter Omer Bajwa is the Coordinator of Muslim Life in the Chaplain's Office at Yale. He has been engaged in religious service, social activism, and educational outreach for the past nine years. His interests include Islam in the United States, interfaith activities, Islam and the global media, and transnational religious and intellectual networks.
This event is part of the Library’s Muslim Journeys program, made possible through a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities Bridging Cultures initiative.
