Jubilee in the Street

On September 24, 2005, the idea that was brought over a drink in Wild Jordan has become a reality! Jubilee in the Street has started with the sponsorship of Greater Amman Municipality and Mr. Abdulrahim Bqa'ei (Deputy Mayor of Amman) declared the opening of this cultural, all young event.

The Opening was great, having Jordanian Artists present, evaluating and enjoying the efforts of young artists among whom were students of the Artists themselves. The Jubilee School was present, with its director general: Ms. Abla Zureikat, Fine Arts Teacher Ms. Sana' Madadha, who declared that she was the most proud person among the attendants, and the significant contribution of the jubilee students, who played music, sang and made the children and old women sign with them, and others who displayed their art works along with some who made direct painting and worked with clay (Salsal) live!!!

The main participants in the Event were: Rasha Hinnawi and Ahlam Idreis (photography), Haneen Shalash, Rashed Nas'a, Marwa Moghrabi, Sara Dreini and Huda arabani (paintings) and the Jubilee School students in paintings, music and clay works.

Mr. Bqa'i along with the GAM representatives was very impressed with this effort which made the event happen within 10 days, Mr. Bqa'i listened to presentations made by the participants, and had discussion with them about their works.

Unfortunately, Sara Dreini did not have the chance to do her presentation before GAM and our gusts, some thing that happened NOT as planned and NOT as expected, but I tell dear Sarah, that this event was made for the largest number of peple to see and enjoy, the mere fact that her works are being now displayed to any visitor or guest to the event is an achievement by itself, the event and the works were not made and displayed only for GAM to see, we know how much you just like us wanted your works to be presented to Mr. Bqa'i, but it seems that the setting (which was all arranged by GAM, being the sponsor) and the leading of the guest (which was also planned by GAM) lead to this sad fact for which we all feel sorry. However, we are proud of having the Works of Sara displayed in this street for more 5 days to go and we all thank Sara for the effort, she, her sister and Abdallah put in this event, and their contribution as beginners in arranging events is highly appreciated.

Finally, I would like to thank and thank and thank Wael Attili for brining the idea, Wael Attili is not the only who made the suggestion of this event, but also the one who contacted the participants, met with them, took them to the site to have them know and imagine their works displayed, designed the invitations, posters and announcement, hanged the works, made the biography cards of each participant and yes, was the man behind the scenes working hard with full heart and passion..Thank you Wa'el..Thank you very much.

I also thank Ali Dabbas and Laith abu Shahin for handling the logistics of materials, labels, and other follo up that needed patience and hard work..(I tell you Sara there were other people who really worked hard too!)..I thank Nabeel Abu Ata who made the connection with GAM at the first place that made them sponsor us and help us realize this event within a very short period of 10 days. I thank all the board members who were present, the guests who attended the event, our friends from the Jubilee, graduates and students, and our families and friends.

Thank you every body, and I call upon every body who can spare some time to go and enjoy the works of Jubilee students..in the Street!

let's make this event a success and a contribution to the cultural and night life of Jordan and its people.

Shark Tale, a very interesting movie, but was only one factor of the beauty of the second movie night!

The Jubilee Alumni held its second movie night on September 9, 2005 where Alumni members, a number of graduates, and their friends gathered to watch: Shark Tale. The event was a success, seeing this number of people socializing and mingling brought pleasure to my mind, and the beautiful memories always turn to be connected to the Jubilee and the Alumni continues in adding rings to the beautiful chain of memories.

I tell you guys, Shark Tale is highly recommended for those who haven't see it, and for this movie to be seen properly, I thank Ashraf Dabbas, Walid and Marwa Nas'a for working on the technicalities, Walid and Mahmoud As'ad who helped us in hanging the screen, Mohammed Dabbas who provided us with the catering, Mahmoud Yahia for checking the neatness of the place and that every thing is okay before and after the event, and most importantly, I thank the graduates who brought their families such as Pierr Shami and Ashraf Dabbas and also the guys and girls who attended, helped in arranging the place, moving the chairs, cleaning the place and who showed very cooperative and belonging manner, things that nurturers the heart.

More movie nights will take place..We promise! Threfore, if any one has in mind a movie, please do not hesitate to suggest.
