Join us for an unforgettable evening of music, laughter, and solidarity with the people of Gaza featuring:

The internationally acclaimed ensemble Seffarine, whose lush vocals and energetic rhythms celebrate the sounds of North Africa, Moorish Spain, the Sahara, Middle East, and Sephardic Jewish traditions through the lens of modern Morocco. 

Palestinian American comedian Amer Zahr whose sharp wit and powerful voice bring humor, heart, and clarity in the face of injustice. In his words, "Sometimes we laugh until we cry. And sometimes we cry until we laugh. It’s all about the power of the truth.” 

All proceeds will be donated to the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund (PCRF), which provides life-saving medical care to injured and ill children from Gaza.

This event is proudly sponsored by the Jewish–Palestinian Alliance of Oregon (JPAO).
