SUMMARY:Children's Reading Hour with Author\, Simon Sakkab
DESCRIPTION:The Museum of the Palestinian People will be hosting Simon Sakkab on Sunday\, December 15th for family mornings at the Museum! \nHe will be leading a story-time and a discussion beginning at 10:30 AM\, followed by a child-led museum tour. \n‘Palestine A- Z ‘:  \n‘Palestine A to Z’ is an English-Arabic bilingual\, illustrated book for children. It has tempo\, rhyme and alliteration; a joy to read for every generation. It takes the reader from the aspirations of a people to return to their homes in their homeland\, through ancestral lemon and olive groves\, ancient biblical cities\, street foods\, tents and refugee camps\, to Palestinians’ rich history and culture. The author and the illustrators worked hand-in-hand to convey multiple themes and symbols in colorful and meaningful illustrations. \nAbout Simon Sakkab: \nSimon Sakkab is a first generation Palestinian-American. He learned about Palestine\, first hand\, from his grandmother\, a Christian Palestinian\, who with her family became refugees during the Nakba of 1948. He has visited many parts of Palestine\, and has stories to tell about his experiences and adventures. The book is a labor of love. The author hopes that children of Palestinian descent learn about where they come from\, and their beautiful\, rich heritage; also\, to inspire the curiosity of children worldwide\, encouraging them to learn more about Palestine.

SUMMARY:Artist Talk with Mohammed Sabaaneh
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a Zoom conversation with Mohammad Sabaaneh about his life in Palestine\, art\, and how the two intertwine. \nMohammad Sabaaneh’s art is on display at the Museum of the Palestinian People through February 2025. \nAbout the Artist: \n \nMohammad Sabaaneh is a Palestinian cartoonist and a former political prisoner in Israel. He is the author of White and Black (2017) and Power Born of Dreams: My Story is Palestine (2021)\, whichwon the 2022 Palestine Book Award. His new book\, 30 Seconds from Gaza: Diary of Genocidewill be released spring 2025. He is a Middle East representative for the Cartoonists Rights Network International and has had his work published in the Middle East Monitor\, Al-Quds Al-Arabi\, Al-Hayat al-Jadida and many others. He teaches art at the Arab American University of Palestine. \nSabaaneh’s art challenges the narratives imposed by the occupying forces by bringing to life the faces\, emotions\, and stories of those often overlooked. As he describes it\, his art is a form of defiance against the erasure and dehumanization of Palestinians. By using stark imagery and powerful symbolism\, Sabaaneh seeks to rehumanize the Palestinian people\, affirming their identity\, dignity\, and rights as the indigenous inhabitants of their land.
