Literary Programs
Our literary programs are designed to engage and enlighten guests of all ages through showcasing literature by and about Arab Americans, from the annual Arab American Book Awards, which awards recent literary contributions in the fields of poetry, fiction and non-fiction, to our English-Arabic Storytime, an educational program introducing young children to words and phrases in Arabic and English through picture books.

The Arab American Book Awards is a literary program created to honor books written by and about Arab Americans, generating greater awareness of Arab American scholarship and writing through an annual award competition and educational outreach.
