#Iraq20: “Where Do You Live?” Artists bridge the gap between the US and Iraq

On March 5 at 12 p.m. Boston Playwrights Theater will be the home for a very special event, Where Do You Live? Creative Dialogue between Iraqi and American Women. 

The afternoon gathering will showcase ongoing work in poetry, theater, and the visual arts from members of Her Story Is, a collective of women based in Iraq and the US that is committed to peaceful dialogue and creative partnerships. 

In addition to presenting collaborations between women of both countries, the event will be dedicated to remembering the 20th anniversary of the March 2003 US invasion and occupation of Iraq as well as the 16th anniversary of the 2007 bombing of Al-Mutannabi Street, in the cultural district of Baghdad.
