CAFÉ FINJAN
is a series of interfaith
arts exchanges, begun in 2004 by the Jewish Council on Urban Affairs as part of
its Jewish-Muslim Community-Building Initiative. The series creates spaces for
Chicagoland Jews, Muslims, and others of diverse backgrounds to come together
and give voice to their identity and experience as part of a larger community.
"Finjan," a word in both Arabic and Hebrew, is a metal pot for
brewing coffee in the traditional Middle Eastern style, not only in the home,
but also on a campfire, with comrades gathered around for warmth.
This event features local Muslim and Jewish storytellers, poets & singers. Join CAMP in an evening of engaging conversation. Meet old friends and make new friends while appreciating our artists and musicians.
