Join us in celebrating Arab Heritage Month the best way we know how...FILM!
We are hosting an educational and comical night with the help of The Calgary Arab Arts & Culture Society, Foothills Local Immigration Partnership, Foothills Community Immigrant Services, and MORE. Join us for an evening of Culture.
The night will be hosted at Almira's restaurant and include a light treat of Arab food, Arab artists, information, and the very funny film Front Row.
If you have wanted to learn about and understand your neighbours, this is a great place to start as these community members will be sharing culture and what it means to be Arab. Come share with us!!

Story:
Up bright and early with their pet in tow, Zohra Bouderbala and her five children are heading to the beach. This is not a drill! In Algiers, the coveted front row spot waits for no one, but it’s not this family’s first time having to beat the summer seaside crowds. The unmotivated and out-of-luck masses who arrive too late will be left to a viewless laze in the sun, the alleged horizon blocked by a fortress of parasols and flowing canopies.
