About this listen

Lectures, readings and conversations from the Mosaic Rooms’ archive, monthly on Radio AlHara. Over the next few months, we’re digging through our recorded archives and sharing some of the voices that have echoed inside our rooms. As we step into a short pause and a moment of transformation, we want to celebrate all that has come before this next chapter. We stay connected on the airwaves. Mixing by Justin Tam. Graphic design by Rand Raid.
