The Arabic House is dedicated to practicing Modern Standard Arabic outside of the classroom setting. The group meets two evenings per week (Tuesdays and Thursdays) for an hour of conversation practice (from 8:30PM-9:30PM), often with snacks and tea. Conversations are both casual and group-led and will sometimes be split according to student’s conversation levels. Most activities are held in the Greenhouse of the Gregory Class of 1925 building located at 3941 Irving Street. Additional cultural activities may take place in Gregory (films will usually be shown in the Class of ’25 basement), elsewhere at Penn or throughout Philadelphia. The program welcomes both beginners and advanced speakers. Dedicated undergraduate students may choose to enroll for credit (Arabic 180), but there is also a non-credit option.
