Friday Night Reflections: Connecting the Human and Divine - Gardens of Paradise

September 18, 2020 | Canada

This evening, join Luis Monreal, General Manager of the Aga Khan Trust for Culture, as we explore the development of parks, gardens and public spaces and their critical role in the lives of vibrant communities. In a conversation with host Zahra Ebrahim, Mr. Monreal highlights how the work of AKTC helps to inspire, revitalize and connect communities, highlighting the critical role that culture plays in enhancing the quality of life.

Enjoy the short documentary film Islamic Gardens: Catalysts for Change, which beautifully illustrates how the network of spaces and sites around the world developed under the leadership and vision of Mawlana Hazar Imam has had a transformative impact on the lives of the people it serves.

Also featured will be the world premiere of a new musical expression entitled Chehra Tera, performed by Zaheed Damani and Anar Hussainaly.
