Our students participated in PhotoVoice with SALaMA! They answered questions about their identity as Arabs, resettled refugees, and young people through photos. It's on display at our Chicago office thru July! We will also host an exhibit with Chicago Public Schools in August.

Our middle school summer program will spend the summer learning about Arab culture, heritage, and language! In week one, students made posters and displays showing the cultural highlights of these countries, such as famous landmarks, celebrities, regional delicacies, and more!

Our Youth Summer Programs are in full swing! During the first week of the program, elementary school students learned about Syria! Each student made their own tarboosh, a flat-topped, brimless hat that has historical roots in many Arab countries.
