Uptown Wasla is a celebration of Arab American Heritage Month featuring live music from across the diaspora and sets by Arab American DJs, from 8PM to late. Throughout the night, live performances and DJ sets will move in conversation with one another, offering a rich mix of traditional and contemporary sounds. With instrumentation that may include oud and other classical elements, the evening centers Arab diasporic artistry, cultural connection, and collective joy. Twenty-five percent of proceeds will go to Gaza relief efforts through the Motaz Foundation.
