The World Nomads Festival of the French Institute Alliance Française (FIAF) will again focus on Tunisia this year.
According to the New York Times, Tunisian culture will be presented once again at the World Nomads festival in the Alliance Française, which will be organized in New York from May 8 to 10.
This festival, which had already presented artists inspired by the Arab Spring in 2011, will showcase singer Sonia M’Barek, musician Bassam Saba, and filmmaker Nejib Belkadhi.
Sonia M’Barek will perform with Bassem Saba and the Qanun Slim Jaziri player on May 8.
