The Syrian and Lebanese immigrants who began settling in Texas in the 1880s brought new cultural threads to the landscape, while they were also changed in many ways. Please join the Khayrallah Center for Lebanese Diaspora Studies for a conversation on “Texas Bound,” a multi-part project that explores the rich history and experiences of Syrian and Lebanese immigrants and their descendants in the Lone Star State. Led by Dr. Akram Khater, director of the Khayrallah Center, this virtual event will highlight and celebrate the community’s indelible mark on the history of Texas. Join us!
Platform: Zoom (Registrants will receive the link in their registration confirmation email and in another email closer to event date)
Cost: Free (Donations in support of the Friends of the Texas Historical Commission are welcome and appreciated!)
