Do you like art? Do you like amazing food? Do you want to hold someone's hand?


Join us on Sunday, 25th August to launch our new "Hold My Hand" project.

We'll draw colorful self portraits, cut them out and attach their hands into one of those wonderful paper doll chains. Jean will take it to Zaatari Camp where the children will make their own portraits to add. The kids in Seattle and the kids from Syria will almost literally be holding hands! Plus it will be lots of fun and smiles - in Seattle and Zaatari. Sunday 25th Aug 11-4 at Melrose Market Street Festival. Outside the fabulous Mamnoon restaurant. Yum!

This project was inspired by a great new book called "The Paper Dolls" published in the UK by Pan MacMillan who will be working with us to provide books in Arabic for children in the refugee camps. Thanks Pan MacMillan!
