The Atlas Cultural Foundation works to help underserved Moroccans, especially women and children, improve their quality of life through locally determined development projects in cultural preservation, education and health.

“The success of our programs is a direct result of [a] commitment to service between Montanans and Moroccans,” said Cloe Erickson, president and founder of ACF.

Working in the Atlas Mountains, ACF has focused on development in the region of Zawiya Ahansal since 2009. Collaborating with MSU-Bozeman as well as individual Montanans, ACF has in the last five years restored three historic buildings, constructed a refuse oven, implemented a year-round elementary school tutoring program and conducted community and environmental health education and outreach.

The show will open Aug. 9 at 4:30 p.m.
