The Story of the Mudhif

Heather McAdoo

Join us for the final event of the Marsh Arabs Project celebrating the release and screening of a documentary capturing the construction of a mudhif on the grounds of Rice University, and the events that took place surrounding this important project.

The filmmaker, Eli Johns-Krull, will be present to talk about the project that took place from June–December 2023. This was the first time that a mudhif, using authentic materials from the marshes of Iraq, was created in America.

We are grateful for all of the sponsors and volunteers who were part of this monumental undertaking.
