WMI PLUS At Home with Azam Ali (NIYAZ)
WMI PLUS At Home experiences bring music from around the world into the comfort of your home. Renowned artists share their lives, instruments, and stories from their personal environments, bringing an intimacy and uniqueness to each event. These talks are led by fellow musicians, journalists, and ethnomusicologists. Live captioning will be provided during the event.
We are thrilled to provide these events for FREE. If you are able to make a donation of any amount while registering for this event, it will help us to keep the music playing. Thank you!

Join Azam Ali for a WMI PLUS At Home conversation about her musical journey, feminism in the East, and how NIYAZ, through their music, bridges the gap between East and West. Azam will be joined by author, journalist, and co-host of the Conspirituality Podcast Derek Beres, and will answer questions from attendees.
