As the semester comes to a close, our three centers wish you happy holidays and a happy new year!

We'd also like to extend our thanks to all of those who helped make our events a success. This semester we were able to put on our first Muslim Horror Film Festival #Halaloween, MENA-SEA teacher trainings, and host speakers from across the globe, such as Aymann Ismail, Zeid Ra’ad Al Hussein, Amira Hanafi, and more. 

We are looking forward to the new year and next semester, and we hope you are too!
