Dear Colleagues,
The Asian Program at the University of Massachusetts is
planning a 3-days event between March 8 -10, 2001. One of
the sessions is assigned to Arabic Calligraphy. With its fluid
design and diacratical markings, the Arabic language lends itself
to the art of calligraphy.
We seek your assistance to locate someone, preferably within
a driving/short distance flight to Amherst, to talk about and
demonstrate types of Arabic calligraphy. The session is scheduled
for March 8, 2001. Please respond to me or call the organizer,
Professor Ranjana Devi, at (413) 545-1980.
Best.
Mohammed Jiyad
