Our next Book Club meeting will take place on Tuesday, March 4, 2025, at 7pm ET. We’ll be discussing Letters from a Kurd by Kae Bahar.
This book is 418 pages long, so we are taking two months to order and read it. The book is published by Yolk Publishing (UK) and is available for purchase through their website as well as other online bookstores.
Date and time: Tuesday, March 4, 2025, at 7pm ET
Place: Zoom

The New York Kurdish Cultural Center has received a generous grant from New York State Council on the Arts (NYSCA). The funding will be applied to the New York Kurdish Film Festival, edition 9, coming in the fall of 2025.
The New York Kurdish Cultural Center, established in 2017, seeks to nurture and showcase Kurdish contributions to the visual and performing arts, cinema, and literature. By creating venues for exhibitions and performances in the New York area, it further aims to foster community among Kurds and to build bridges with non-Kurdish communities.
The NYKCC creates spaces where Kurds and friends of Kurds may interact in safety. We do not tolerate discriminatory behavior based on race, color, religion, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, national origin, disability, or age.
The New York Kurdish Cultural Center, Inc., is a 501(c)3 nonprofit registered in New York State.
