With Love, from Kalamazoo to Palestine bringing Palestinian culture to Bronson Park – MLive.com
Posted By admin on July 14, 2022
KALAMAZOO, MI For a second year, With Love, from Kalamazoo to Palestine: A Festival of Celebration and Solidarity plans to bring the culture of Palestine to Bronson Park.
The event scheduled from 3-6 p.m. on Saturday, July 16, is intended to feature the culture of Palestine and bring Middle Eastern food, music and art to the downtown Kalamazoo park. The family-friendly festival is hosted by Kalamazoo Non-violent Opponents of War (KNOW), the WMU Arab Students Association and Friends of Palestine.
Two dance troupes hailing from Dearborn Mawtini Dance Troupe, and the Thowra Dabke Dance Troupe will perform traditional dances and give attendees the chance to join and learn dabke, a folk dance that originated in the Middle East.
Faud Foty from Washington D.C will also be providing Middle Eastern tunes at Saturdays festival.
Younger attendees can participate in activities and get their face painted, while adults browse vendor tables with Middle Eastern art, jewelry and henna artists.
Speakers will share their familial ties to Palestine and the importance of solidarity with Palestine. In the spirit of solidarity, there will be a chance to donate to the Palestine Childrens Relief Fund.
Attendees will have to bring their own lawn chairs as seating will not be provided. In case of inclement weather, the event will move indoors and be held at the Kalamazoo Nonprofit Advocacy Coalition facility at 315 W. Michigan Ave.
