What are the symbols associated with the sea? How are they related to Coptic art? What do they symbolize? Are they linked only to Alexandria and its sea, or do their symbolism extend to the rest of Egypt? Are they still relevant today?

In this seminar, we will explore the answers to these questions with Dr. Amany Salah.
We look forward to seeing you on Monday, November 18th, at 7:00 PM.
