Mimouna Banquet for Mideast Cultural Exchange
@ Kimmel 802, Shorin Auditorium

Celebrate the end of Passover with a band, a bellydancer, and Moroccan food catered by Taim (Kosher for Passover)! Mimouna is a centuries-old Moroccan tradition, whereby Jews–at the end of Passover–give as a gift the rest of their unleavened food to their Muslim neighbors. Muslims prepare a yeast-filled feast for their Jewish friends.
Middle East Dialogue Group invites you to eat, celebrate and dance! See the work of the New Orleans interfaith relief effort, watch an excerpt of Catherina Hanna’s and Simnia Singer-Sayada’s Shalom Sahbity, and stick around for an open-mic night of music, poetry, spoken word, and cultural exchange.
Tickets at NYU Ticket Central–$5 NYU, $10 non-NYU ($7 and $15 at the door)
Proceeds benefit the Arava Institute for Environmental Studies, which brings together Palestinian, Israeli and Jordanian college students encouraging regional cooperation in facing environmental challenges.
This event is cosponsored by the Bronfman Center, Arab Students United, Koach, Hillel, the Jewish Law Students Association, the Middle Eastern Law Students Association, the Islamic Law Students Association, the Afghan Students Association, the Persian Cultural Society, and the Pakistani Students Association

Sala’s Gift: My Mother’s Holocaust Story
@ The Bronfman Center

Every family has its secrets, though few of them have the power both to transform lives and to fill in crucial gaps in world history. But then, few families have a mother and a daughter quite like Sala and Ann Kirschner. “For nearly fifty years, my mother kept a secret. After surviving 5 years of Nazi slave labor camps, Sala Garncarz Kirschner came to America as a war bride and raised our family without ever speaking of her wartime experiences. I grew up in a happy and safe home, and became a scholar, writer, and a mother myself, but always wondered about the black hole in my mother’s past. It was not until my mother was scheduled for heart surgery in 1991 that she showed me a priceless collection of more than 350 letters and a diary from her years in the camps, documents that she had kept carefully hidden in a cardboard box. In that moment, my mother changed my life.
Author Ann Kirschner will share with us the story of what happened to her mother, to the letter writers, and to herself when she found received Sala’s Gift.
