While our first Public Forum focused on conversations around arrival in Philadelphia and starting a new home, our second Forum continues conversations with Philadelphia residents about their journeys to here — as compiled by writer Ann de Forest and photographer Dave Tavani. Nazem El Sayed (poet) and Kinan Abou-afach (composer/cellist) will present a half-hour music-poetry interlude of new works, with Hafez Kotain (percussionist) and Hanna Khoury (violinist), and translations by Huda Fahkhreddine (literary scholar). Guest poets Fatemah Shams and Ahmad Almallah will read their poetry, followed by audience participation in compiling a collective poem, and ending with refreshments from local restaurants.
