Arab Heritage

The House of Culture and Art Washington DC is dedicated to the preservation, celebration, and dissemination of Arab heritage as an integral component of world civilization. Rooted in centuries of intellectual, artistic, and cultural achievement, Arab heritage encompasses literature, philosophy, music, visual arts, architecture, calligraphy, and oral traditions that have shaped global knowledge and creativity.

Our work seeks to highlight both the richness of this legacy and its contemporary relevance within diasporic and intercultural contexts. Through exhibitions, performances, workshops, and scholarly dialogue, we provide a platform where Arab traditions are explored not merely as historical artifacts, but as living expressions that continue to inspire innovation and community identity.

By fostering engagement with Arab heritage, we aim to deepen cross-cultural understanding, strengthen intergenerational ties, and affirm the enduring role of Arab contributions within the broader narrative of human civilization.
