We hosted an Iraqi school principal April 12-18. She visited Performing and Fine Arts classrooms as well as administrators over the Arts to gain expertise on how to run a Center for the Arts for teens and young adults in her community in Iraq.
The Arabic program hosted her visit. She talked to Arabic students about modern issues in Iraq and showed them the difference between Egyptian and Iraqi dialect with the help of our Egyptian teacher, Mohamed Elnaggar.

Iraqi Principal to Visit Provo
The Iraqi principal will arrive on Monday, April 12, and leave Sunday, April 18. People have been very generous with their time. She will be meeting with experts in the field of education and community building who specialize in both performing and fine Arts for teens. We're excited about the the kinds of connections We've been able to secure so far. We even hunted down someone just last night who does community art shows featuring the work of struggling teens and their artistic mentors.
The fundraising is going well so far and students have been very generous in a tight economy.
If you're interested in more information about the project send me an email or contact me on the blog.
