• Free Virtual Family Center Visiting Artist: Aya Khalil, Wednesday, Dec. 30: 10 a.m. via Zoom. Join local author Aya Khalil for a family-friendly story time. Khalil will read her book, “The Arabic Quilt: An Immigrant Story” – an endearing story of little Kanzi's first day of third grade in the United States. Kanzi recently immigrated with her family from Egypt and does not want any extra attention on her than is necessary. This virtual event is free, but advanced registration is required and can be completed at tickets.toledomuseum.org. A link for the live-stream event will be emailed to participants in advance of the story time. The Family Center is supported in part by Mercy Health, the Toledo Museum of Art Ambassadors and The Andersons Inc.
