Narrating Our Stories

Join us on Saturday, February 8, for an intimate and casual dining experience and critical fundraising effort at Brooklyn Poets. The event will feature a creative and interactive reading and discussion that invites reflection and connection. 

We will donate 100% of the proceeds to Gaza-based journalist Sabrin Abu Khatla’s grassroots project, which provides her fellow journalists with essential food packages, including rice, oil, sugar, tea, and pasta. Local Palestinian journalists are our main link to what’s happening inside Gaza. Sabrin has meticulously researched market prices and compiled a detailed cost breakdown to ensure transparency. The total amount we need to raise is $10,225.00, which we aim to raise on this special night to support her vital efforts. 

Featured storytellers: Omar Offendum, Hala Alayan, and Hoda Osman.

Savor the Story: An Evening of Food & Drink Inspired by Theatre

Join us in collaboration with New York Theatre Workshop and Cinema+Mixology for a special evening.

Inspired by the powerful storytelling in A Knock on the Roof, we’re continuing the conversation with a gathering that celebrates the rich culinary traditions of Palestine and Bilad El Sham.

Experience a live Manakeesh Station, more food, music, and meaningful connections in an intimate setting.

This event is presented in collaboration with Cinemixologist, known for crafting drinks inspired by films. For this evening, our signature cocktails and mocktails will be thoughtfully inspired by the play itself.

Let’s come together to reflect on the play's theme and celebrate culture through food and drinks.

Please note: The 3rd Floor Rehearsal Room is only accessible by stairs (three flights). Unfortunately, the building does not have an elevator.
