Al-Qasim Junior Youth Club

The Al-Qasim-JUNIOR YOUTH CLUB (QJYC) announces its first ever Saturday Junior Youth Workshop, a weekly program that builds upon the artistic and aesthetic talents of junior youth, in order to help them internalize and promote Islamic values within their lives. The program is divided into three (3) semesters: Fall, Spring and Summer. We will begin with a shortened Summer Semester to start on Saturday July 24th. This is a great opportunity to instill in junior youth a strong Islamic identity by creating, and enhancing their talents within the IEC community and other Islamic programs and events.
