Arab American Heritage
Every April, we honor the history, traditions and contributions of Arab Americans — and the community that makes Little Arabia home.
Rooted in Community
Little Arabia grew along Brookhurst Street through the work of families, shop owners and neighbors from across the Arab world. Heritage here is lived every day — in the food, the music, the languages and the gatherings.
