Hallo Jerusalem, Capital of Arab Culture 2009

A night of celebration at the Drum, Birmingham: 7:30 pm on 10 July 2009

The Midlands Palestinian Community Association is celebrating the choice of Jerusalem as capital of Arab Culture at 7:30 on the 10th of July in Birmingham. This evening of cultural solidarity with the future capital of Palestine will feature musicians and writers from Birmingham and Alzaytouna Nottingham Dabka Group. We hope to raise funds to support a Palestinian charity or organisation that works to maintain and enrich the Palestinian Arab identity of Jerusalem. This should be a truly memorable night.

Book your tickets early to avoid disappointment, especially if you are travelling from outside Birmingham either online at www.the-drum. co.uk or by telephone on 0121 3332444. The tickets are £9 if you are in work or £6 if you are not.

Work begins on the Library project at Dir Ammar Refugee Camp in Ramallah

BRTI is pleased to announce that work has started on the Library project at Dir Ammar which the people of Birmingham have very generously supported.  This has been through a combination of donations, Falafel Evenings and a Nasheed Competition.  We are also grateful for a very generous donation from the Sultan Bahur Trust.  The first phase of the block work is complete.
