Park City Library invites you to a screening of the HBO documentary “Koran by Heart.”

Three young children leave their native countries to compete in the International Holy Koran Competition where their memory of the 600 page text is tested.

After the screening, Maysa Kergaye, from the Islamic Speaker’s Bureau, will be available to answer general questions about Islam.

This program is made possible by the Muslim Journeys Bookshelf, a project of the National Endowment for the Humanities Bridging Cultures Initiative.
