Film Screening (“Monir”) + Art Workshop

@ Sabeel Center

8800 Ballard Rd, Des Plaines, IL 60016

Opening Friday, March 10th, from 7PM - 8:30PM

A collaboration between The Abrahamic Center for Cultural Education and Sabeel Center for Women’s History Month.

Enjoy a special screening of the film “Monir,” – a witty and heartfelt movie exploring the life and artistic practice of Monir Shahroudy Farmanfarmaian. Monir is the first artist to establish a creative approach that weds the geometric patterns and cut-glass mosaic techniques (Āina-kāri) of her Iranian heritage with the rhythms of modern Western geometric abstraction.
