Lebanese-Newfoundland Heritage - FULL

Where: Theatre
Coffee & Culture

Newfoundland and Labrador is home to a diversity of cultures and ethnicities, but little attention has been given to how non-European identities have contributed to our province. Beginning with their arrival in the late 19th century, Lebanese immigrants established a successful business community here. Join Heritage NL for a conversation about how one group of immigrants built a unique sense of place while retaining cultural ties to their ancestral homeland.
