Event Details

Join critically acclaimed belly dancer Shabnam as she celebrates 20 years of her creative practice with a concert at OACC. She specializes in Orientale Bellydance, which blends ballet and Middle Eastern Dance. This dynamic approach is contemporary, yet honors the traditional roots of Middle Eastern Dance—a lineage that is thousands of years old. She will be accompanied by internationally acclaimed musicians Georges Lammam, Amina Goodyear, Khader Keileh and Susu Pampanin, each of whom bring passion and mastery to their practices of traditional Middle Eastern music. Free tickets are available, but registration is requested.
