Khayal: A Multimedia Collection by Muslim Creatives

Rashid, Hussein; Ali, Zaheer; Alhassen, Maytha; Abdul Khabeer, Su'ad; Offendum, Omar; Ali Jafri, Asad

The Muslim Narrative Change (MNC) cohort has been part of Pillars Fund’s Culture Change programming since its inception. Our fellows have been our thought partners, offering insight into traditional Muslim creative practices and philosophy, landscape analyses, and incisive perspectives on the needs of artists. When we gathered to think of a way to honor their contributions to Pillars, we decided the best way to do so was to create a publication for our communities, a work exploring intercommunal curiosities, for us by us.

We envision this collection as a continuation of our heritage as cultural practitioners committed to the intertwining of art and Islam.
