COME VISIT AND ENJOY ART WEEK 2017

By Lorena de la Torre

Art Week is back! The largest cultural event of the region will be celebrated this March.  Held across the United Arab Emirates and Qatar, it will be packed with outdoor art projects, films, performances, literature, exhibitions, and workshops highlighting the fast-growing creative scene.

From the Museum of Islamic Art in Qatar to the Guggenheim in Abu Dhabi, this 2017 Art Week edition, will include many cultural activities. Art Week is supported by institutions, universities, galleries and hotels across the cities of Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, and Doha.

ART WEEEK DUBAI

Not only in Al Fahidi, but also around Dubai, we will have the chance to enjoy art. Why? Because this year they will feature two new events.
