The presentation includes a moving testimonial and a captivating musical live performance by Ali and his all-star ensemble. The event is hosted at the Mingei International Museum alongside the 25 Million Stitches exhibit highlighting the global refugee crisis through art.

Ali Paris’s unwavering commitment to showcasing Arabic music in collaborations with international artists from diverse musical backgrounds and genres, such as Alicia Keys, Alejandro Sanz, and Bobby McFerrin, sends a powerful message of community, empowerment, and hope to those who have encountered similar struggles.
