Join us for a series of informal dabke performances at 7:00pm with El-Funoun members and local dancers dancers followed by a performance by El-Funoun.
Following the performances, El-Funoun dancers and local facilitators will facilitate a dialogue, discussing the history of dabke as a vital Palestinian cultural practice and the ways dabke acts as a form of cultural preservation and resistance. Audience members will be invited to learn dabke steps, participate in a traditional dabke circle, and meet with the dancers.
This event is hosted by Mizna, Grief & Rage Circle for Palestine and Body Watani Dance.
