About this event

On April 19, the Bureau of General Services—Queer Division will host the NYC launch of Elias Jahshan's latest book, 'This Queer Arab Family.' The event includes a conversation between Elias Jahshan and Afeef Nessouli, followed by a Q&A session and book signings. The book explores how queer Arab communities reimagine family beyond traditional norms, featuring stories from ten queer writers across the Arab world and diaspora. The event will be held in person at the Bureau's venue located at 208 W. 13th St., Room 210, NYC, and will also be live-streamed on YouTube. Attendees can participate without registration; seating is first come, first served. Copies of the book will be available for purchase, and donations are encouraged.
