Islamic Art & Culture: Terrific Twitter Threads

Here are some fascinating Islamic art and architecture threads from the Arabic Art House Bayt Al Fann.

They include threads about Islamic calligraphy, Islamic gardens, unique mosques in Africa, the dome interiors of mosques worldwide, and the use of geometric patterns in Islamic art.

These threads, which I have saved as pdfs, could work well in a unit on Islam in World History.  Groups might work on one of the topics, create a short Google slide show, and then present.
