Events in Amman, November 14 – 20

الأحد 14 تشرين الثاني 2010

If you thought there won’t be anything on the cultural calendar this week because of Eid Holiday, well, think again. This week the Jordan Short Film Festival kicks off at Mohtaraf Remal and features 40 Arab and International short films over four days as well as live performances by Ta3leeleh artists.

Stand up comedian Ahmed Ahmed is in town this week; his film “Just Like Us” is screening at the RFC and he’s performing shows in Amman and Aqaba.

If you’re looking for something different and exciting to do, join Safar Fund for a hiking trip to Wadi Zarqa Maeen and enjoy fascinating waterfalls and waterways while helping raise money for the program that supports youth mobility across the Arab World.

Happy Eid everyone!
