The event, which is slated for 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 23, will involve area mosques opening their doors to the general public.

Although most mosques are always open to the public, this is a chance for individuals and groups to join in a casual setting with Muslims from their neighborhoods.
