This week is packed full with very interesting events. We changed the title from "Arts and Culture" because we want to feature exciting events like the Global Entrepreneurship Week, which is bringing to Amman people like Joi Ito, Ceo of Creative Commons, Mitchell Baker, Chairperson of Mozilla and Reid Hoffman, Ceo of Linkedin. We at 7iber are also particularly excited about the first ever Creative Commons Arab World Salon, which will feature many fun and interesting presentations about CC for media, comics, creative economy, filmmakers, geeks, user-generated content, and more. (This is partly shameless self-promotion because we'll be presenting the 7iber Cards competition and CC for Social Media Community Projects.) It's also a busy week on the art and culture front with the Jordan Theater Festival featuring 13 local plays every day until the 22nd (Check here this evening for the detailed schedule). You can catch two days left of...

This week, there's a good number of music events around town; fusion, jazz, classical Arabic, Western classical, and Ammani funk/rock.

The European Film Festival continues, with two screenings everyday except Monday, and the Shoman Culture Forum and Jordanian Astrological Society have interesting lectures scheduled. [Update: The Jordanian Short Film Festival is also taking place this week, with 40 international and Arabic films, from Egypt, Chile, Iran, Palestine, England, china, and Syria.] Here you go, 7iber's Sunday roundup of arts and culture events for the week ahead.
