Join us at MOVE 2019 for three packed days where Arab Americans and allies will come together to elevate our voices to advance social change. We will provide space to connect, learn, and exchange ideas around many topics and issues impacting the Arab American community. At MOVE, there’s something for everyone. MOVE features over 20 breakout sessions and plenary speakers, special cultural events, entertainment and music, interactive art demonstrations, theater performances, and more.
