It is inspired by the emirate’s flourishing cultural scene and presents a rich programme of contemporary art exhibitions, workshops, film screenings, providing an opportunity for the creative community in Dubai, the UAE and the world to showcase their work, flourish and connect.

Started on 25 May and continuing on for the next three months, the event invited visitors to experience four exhibitions by local and international artists that reflect their individual styles and the unique concepts they are addressing.
