For over a century, Syrian & Lebanese families in the American South have built lives, opened businesses, and shaped their communities.
Now, their stories live on through our new Family History Archive.

Hear their voices. See their journeys.

During the pandemic, we made adaptions to our programming to provide individual and family-centered virtual programs: https://t.co/3sgXrG0120
We also discuss cultural adaptations of art therapy experientials to best meet the needs of our families served.

While we didn’t originally intend for this PhotoVoice / art therapy program w/ @ArabAmericanMus to be virtual, the onset of COVID led us to expand beyond a study of immigration experienced through the photography lens to capture experiences in lockdown: https://t.co/VBdgSpP77w
