In addition, the Muhammad Ali Center continues to host a new<br />

special exhibit—America to Zanzibar: Muslim Cultures Near and<br />

Far. In this exciting, family-friendly exhibit, children and families<br />

will learn about the many diverse expressions of Muslim cultures<br />

through age-appropriate, interactive experiences with art,<br />

architecture, design, music, and more. In addition, this new<br />

exhibit inspires cultural empathy, which helps children and<br />

families become more attuned to seeing the similarities and<br />

differences of others in a positive way.<br />

The Muhammad Ali Center is offering curriculum-based field-trip<br />

experiences in conjunction with America to Zanzibar for grades<br />

pre-k to 12 th grade. These guided curriculum experiences include<br />

various topics in Muslim culture, from architecture to world<br />

religion. Through a generous gift from Texas Roadhouse, we have<br />

had four 4 th and 5 th grade classes being sponsored: Byck,<br />

Okolona, Watterson, and Wellington Elementary School. Finally,<br />

the Muhammad Ali Center has partnered with the Kentucky<br />

Museum of Arts and Crafts for a joint field-trip experience that<br />

includes a special art-making activity open to all grade levels.<br />

With only a month and a half left, come and check out this<br />

amazing exhibit before it moves to the next museum!<br />
