Food has the power to bring people together, strengthen friendships, and foster a sense of community. Our Cooking Club is dedicated to celebrating diverse culinary traditions while creating meaningful connections through shared meals.

For our January session, the Cooking Club was led by Chef Ms. Mine and her mother, who introduced participants to two delicious and culturally significant dishes from Turkish cuisine:
• Kalburabasti – A traditional Turkish dessert with a rich, syrupy sweetness and a delicate, textured crust.

• Eggplant Salad – A flavorful and refreshing dish showcasing the unique taste of eggplant, a staple ingredient in Mediterranean cuisine.

Participants not only learned how to prepare these dishes but also discovered the cultural stories behind them, making the experience both educational and enjoyable. Laughter and conversation filled the room as attendees cooked,

On February 1, the Intercultural Dialogue Las Vegas hosted a memorable Dialogue and Friendship Brunch centered on the theme “The Language of Friendship: Listening and Sharing.” Guests engaged in thought-provoking discussions, meaningful conversations, and interactive table activities while enjoying delicious appetizers.

As part of this enriching experience, attendees were introduced to the mesmerizing world of Ebru Art, also known as Turkish paper marbling. Presented by members of Erguvan Art and Academy, this ancient art form symbolizes the beauty of friendship—fluid, unique, and ever-evolving. This event highlighted the power of dialogue, art, and cultural exchange in fostering deeper connections among individuals.

Join us for more inspiring gatherings where we celebrate friendship, learning, and creativity.

Our youth from community recently came together for a tree planting event at Warm Springs Natural Area, and it was an unforgettable experience! Surrounded by the beauty of nature, we joined hands to plant trees and greenery that will contribute to the health and restoration of the local ecosystem.

This event was not just about planting trees—it was about fostering a sense of unity and purpose. Each tree we planted is a step toward a greener future, a healthier environment, and a more connected community.

We’re so proud of what we achieved together and incredibly thankful to everyone who participated. Your efforts have made a meaningful difference, and we can’t wait to continue growing with you!

Stay tuned for updates on future activities as we keep working toward a brighter, greener tomorrow.
