You're invited to the opening reception of "Najawa, A Story of Palestine," an art installation on display at the Fletcher Free Library in Burlington, Vermont, on Monday, January 25, 2016, 6 to 8 p.m.

"Najawa," by artist Michelle Sayles, is a 45' long "Street Comic" that tells the story of a Palestinian woman's life in decade snapshots. This comic was created to raise awareness about the history of the Palestinian/Israeli Conflict, synthesizing oral history, documentary, and media accounts of life in occupied Palestine. Sayles collaborated in the development of the project with Jen Berger, local artist and educator, and Vermonters for a Just Peace in Palestine/Israel (www.vtjp.org).

The opening event will be held on Monday, January 25, from 6-8 p.m., featuring free Middle Eastern food, zines, and an artist talk at 7 p.m. The exhibit will be on display through March.
