Gather for Gaza
in support of Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP)
The Institute, Ottery St Mary, Sat 6th Dec, 7 - 11 pm
Short films, discussion, live music, food, bar and stall
The evening will kick off with a screening of short films on Palestine and Gaza followed by discussion and Q&A with Amal Ghusian of Exeter Palestine Solidarity. Later on, there will be live music from Xtra Tacos, a blues/ Americana band. Throughout the evening, Mary’s Syrian Kitchen will be serving authentic Middle Eastern food, alongside a licensed bar whose fare will include Gaza Cola and Gaza beer. There will also be a stall selling Palestinian products.
The Israeli occupation and bombardment of Gaza have put medical services under unimaginable pressure. At least 67,000 Palestinians have been killed and many more injured. 90% of the population have lost their homes, and hunger, trauma and ill-health haunts Gaza’s ruins. A fragile ceasefire brings hope to both Palestinians and Israelis, but whatever happens, the need for health and medical care will remain acute, so please join us on 6th December to support this work. Recommended donation of £5 - £10 on the door.
Ottery Palestine Support is a newly formed group open to all.
