Culturally relevant arts programming

I was at the Arab American Association this past week, meeting some of the amazing youth who might be potential artists with RASMI this summer.  When I asked if anyone had art programs at school, some nodded "yes." When I asked if they ever looked at Arab or Muslim art in those art classes, everyone nodded "no." Important to know ourselves, our histories and herstories.
