Join us for an Arabic Storytelling event centered on Kalila wa Dimna, one of the most influential works in world literature. Originating in India and traveling through Persian and Arabic traditions, the book’s tales will be read and discussed as we explore its storytelling style, themes, and cultural journey across languages and regions. Open to all.
