Levantine Cultural Center champions a greater
understanding of the Middle East and North Africa by presenting artistic and educational programs that bridge
political and religious divides. In a search for common ground, the Center fosters discussions among artists
and thinkers and offers classes and workshops that serve diverse ethnic communities.
The Levantine Cultural Center includes majority and minority cultures, stretching from the historical Al-Andalus
of southern Spain and Morocco to the Balkans, Greece, Turkey and across North Africa and the Middle East
as far as Afghanistan and Pakistan. It includes the creative work of Arabs, Jews and other ethnic/religious
groups with Mideast origins who are living in the West.
They have a special interest in addressing Palestinian and Israeli peace, noting on their website, “Many
Israelis and Palestinians have come to the conclusion that there is simply no violent solution to the conflict,
and that only a peaceful and just negotiated settlement will bring
about change in the region. With them, Levantine Cultural
Center supports only non-violent approaches to cross-cultural
understanding. All of our programs emphasize the need for
coexistence and taking shared responsibility.”

Wikipedia)
The Levantine Center seeks to “give voice to issues and
experiences of underrepresented Middle Eastern communities in
order to bring informative and alternative information on these
communities to the American public and media.”
Laugh with six Middle Eastern American stand-up comedians at the Levantine Center enjoying humor and
universal satire. Also, browse a silent art auction there of talented Arab/Middle Eastern artists and get great
deals; and see your support go to the Levantine Cultural Center, the only nonprofit cultural arts center for the
Middle East and North Africa in southern California that consistently presents voices of progress on the
MENA.
