Exhibits taking shape at Al-Khoei Mosque

An exhibit showcasing existing or historic stained glass windows in the Mosque.  Two images on the right show the artist working on the new window, inscribed with Allah, that replaced the Synagogue's six pointed Star of David.


An exhibit of heritage stories.  Young people asked their parents about their relationship with the mosque and their first impressions.

Learning about the Al-Khoei logo

Students at Al Sadiq school were interested to find out that the Al Khoei logo had been specifically designed for the Foundation.  They decided to reproduce a large version of the logo and explain the different components in English and Arabic beneath the image, so that members of their community could also share in the learning.  

Here the students speak about the white book, the yellow sun and its rays and the blue arch, the 'Mihrab'.
