On March 9, 2017 the AMR Forum hosted an Arabic Art Class where Alya Suliman and Mohammad Talafha discussed some of the history and importance of Arabic artistic traditions. Participants learned to write their names in Arabic calligraphy along with some of the letters of the Arabic alphabet. Several students stayed after to learn about the celebratory tradition of henna art for weddings, holidays, or other special occasions.
