We invite you to commemorate 60 years of struggle and resistance on

and marks the expulsion, dispossession and ethnic cleansing of the
Palestinian people.
Bring the family, and join us for a special day of resistance music,
cultural and youth programs, Nakba tent/art, Dabka, local solidarity
groups and more! Meet survivors from 1948, and learn about the
tragedy, while listening to Palestinian and Native American elders
recount their experiences. Special children's area with games.
