Join the Arab American Cultural Center in celebrations of Eid and Eid food items from across the region. Eid in Arabic means festival or holiday.
April this year holds Eid El-Fitr عيد الفطر at the end of Ramadan and preparations for Eid Al-Fiseh (Eastern Easter) عيد الفصح and sham e-nassem شم النسيم which will take place early May.
Families across the region spend Eid with each other being grateful for good health and enjoying good food and each other's company.
This event is part of Arab American Heritage month events. The Arab American Cultural Center is organizing a series of events to celebrate Arab American Heritage Month during April. The state of Illinois designated April as Arab American Heritage Month (AAHM) in 2018 and the Department of State recognized it nationally in 2021. During April, Arabs and Arab Americans are honored and celebrated for their historical contributions, culture, traditions, history, arts, and overall social presence as a community in the United States.
