Mahmoud

From the height of the buildings to the width of the sidewalks, every city is different — that’s what makes them special! Children will learn about Mahmoud Hariri, who, along with other refugees, recreated the ancient city of Palmyra using clay and wooden skewers as a means to preserve their Syrian culture and heritage. They’ll become city planners, designers, and architects as they draw, sculpt, and paint a city from the past, present, or future.
