On October 1 we kicked off the fall season of Global Thursdays, a multicultural performance series showcasing the finest in world music, performance art and film at the Arab American National Museum. We were pleased to partner with our friends and colleagues at the Smithsonian Affiliations office to bring thrice-Grammy-nominated Rahim AlHaj to perform as the season’s opening act. The performance was incredibly intimate and participatory, and it served as a great start to what we hope will be an excellent season.
