UNHCR (the UN Agency for Refugees) has the pleasure to invite you to an visual concert “DABAKA” by Lebanese and Syrian artists on Tuesday December 18, 2018 at 9:30 pm at the Grand Factory, Karantina, Sea Side.
 
DABAKA is funded by UNHCR and organized with the support of Red Oak. This project is an initiative by Wael Kodeih.
 
DABAKA is a musical project that brings together Lebanese and Syrian artists around an audio-visual performance. The outcome is a unique album and an exceptional show. 

Revisiting the folkloric “dabkeh”, a dance and musical practice emerging from the Levantine’s common heritage, the artists joined their passion and talent to reclaim its place within a contemporary context.

The project hopes to encourage more dialogue between artists on the cultural scene and to foster a greater understanding of the unique role art can play in bringing people together.
