Karim Nagi has performed Arabiqa in over 500 schools, libraries, and museums across the U.S. Through a joyfully interactive performance, he shares traditional instruments, dances, geography, and vocabulary from around the Arab world. A native of Egypt now living in Chicago, Nagi has recorded 17 albums, performed on six continents, produced a play, published a book, and given a TEDx Talk. His goal is to showcase the creativity of the Arab world and dispel negative stereotypes. (60 mins.)

This program is free with museum admission. Capacity is limited—seating begins 30 minutes before the performance. In the DIA’s Lecture Hall.
