The event’s name draws inspiration from the Palestinian Sunbird, a symbol of national pride and resistance. Despite an Israeli campaign to rename it, the Palestine Sunbird remains a powerful emblem of Palestinian identity. By recognizing and celebrating the Palestine Sunbird, the national bird of Palestine, we honor the unyielding spirit and presence of Palestine on the global stage.
Join us for an evening that defies suppression and celebrates the enduring beauty and resilience of Palestinian culture.
