One with an image of people dancing wearing black and kufiyah scarves in a forest preserve area with other people watching and greenery behind. The middle has two kids doing crafts at a table outside. The one on the left has kids and teenagers doing crafts on a table inside the little red school house. Rest of the flier has text in Arabic and English in black over a wavy background with bands of white, blue, orange, and green.
