Palestinian Cultural Club (PCC)

About us: 

The Palestinian Cultural Club is a student club created with the goal of celebrating the beauty that is Palestine. Palestine is in the media often but rarely showcasing the aesthetic, the richness of its history or even the significant and prestigious religious presence. Although the politics is very relevant, we want to showcase the heritage & culture of Palestine. Being that most are unable to visit, this is our effort to provide all of our members a home away from home. Through our inclusive events and social media platforms, our aim is to expand the club by giving it a voice. Our club is, of course, open to every person that has a curiosity and love for Palestine and its culture… we welcome everyone.
