We invite all club members to join us for this wonderful event with the award-winning film and television producer Zarqa Nawaz, creator of Little Mosque on the Prairie. She will share what inspires her to choose her projects, or rather why they choose her. Most recently she is developing a comedy called ZARQA (trailer: https://zarqanawaz.com/), publishing a book called The Rise and Fall of D.I.C.K., and developing a heist comedy entitled Essential Service.

The Club’s Annual General Meeting will also take place at this event. There will be a vote on our new board and an update about early 2021 programming.

The event will be held on Zoom on Tuesday January 26th at 7:00pm.
