IRS990/Desc0Mizna: Prose, Poetry, and Art Exploring Arab America - JOURNAL: In 2017, Mizna published the 33rd and 34th issues of the literary journal "Mizna: Prose, Poetry, and Art Exploring Arab America," featuring the work of 9 visual artists and 27 authors. In publication since 1999, "Mizna" remains the only journal of Arab American literature. Mizna is a precious space for authors, who are both emerging and established, in which they are not confined by what it is supposed to mean to be Arab as defined by dominant culture, rather, through "Mizna," authors have the creative freedom to explore themes that are real and relevant to them, whether they are identity based or not. Also, readers have the opportunity to experience excellent writing from Arab authors telling their own three-dimensional stories. Through this effort, Mizna reaches about 1,000 people.Twin Cities Arab Film Festival - FILM FESTIVAL: The eleventh Twin Cities Arab Film Festival took place September 27 to October 1, 2017. The TCAFF is the largest and longest running Arab film festival in the American Midwest. The Festival has high standards of presenting local debut screenings, showcasing independent film, and inviting filmmakers. Over 5 days, the TCAFF screened 30 films and provides Arab and Muslim Americans the opportunity to see authentic facets of their stories reflected on screen, something not available through mainstream movies and media. Further, through the TCAFF, Mizna is able to bring films that otherwise would not have been seen by Twin Cities audiences and to strengthen the global and local community of Arab film artists. The TCAFF attracted 1500 audience members in 2017.Classes and Special Events - CLASSES AND SPECIAL EVENTS: Mizna continued to offer high quality, affordable Arabic language and Arabic drumming community education courses in 2017. The 10-week courses are taught by experienced instructors at the five language levels and 2 levels of conversation classes.. In 2017, besides the journal, the film festival, and classes, Mizna also presented a number of special cultural events including commissioning a large, public sculpture, Alien Technology II" by Kuwaiti artist Monira Al Qadiri. The sculpture was debuted at a major outdoor art festival in Minneapolis, Northern Spark, where it engaged 20,000 people. It has since been on display outside the Soap Factory, our co-presenting partner. The other major project we undertook was the curation and co-producing with the Walker Art Center Reshaping Our World: Cinema without Borders, a 5-week series of films from the 7 countries originally named in the Muslim Ban.
