* Films
* Live concerts
* Book fairs
* Lectures
* Workshops and much more.

Festival of Muslim Cultures

[size=18]The Festival of Muslim Cultures[/size]

[url= Festival of Muslim Cultures[/url] begins in January 2006 and continues into July 2007.

The events that are being programmed into the Festival year are chosen because they are the best of the arts from the Muslim world, both contemporary and historical. Also because they portray diversity and plurality, giving Muslims living in Britain greater pride in their cultures and a true sense of belonging to Britain.
