Edge of Arabia 'End of Exhibition' Christmas Gathering

The Edge of Arabia artwork will last a lifetime but unfortunately, the event has come to an end. 

This Saturday the 13th December, a special ‘End of Exhibition Christmas Gathering’ will be held at the Brunei Gallery from 10.30am to 5.30pm, to celebrate the success of the remarkable Edge of Arabia exhibition that brought to us eye-opening contemporary art from Saudi Arabia, which portrayed the country’s culture in a differing way to the one we typically see.  

The gathering will be hosted by the organisers, and the artists themselves, providing an excellent opportunity to meet them and to personally discuss their artwork and the ideas behind their creations.  This might be the end of this exhibition, but we hope to see similar exhibitions in the future, with artwork that reflects the way of life and culture in the Middle East, and the talent and inspirations of its artists.  

Everyone is welcome, please spread the word, and visit www.edgeofarabia.com for more information on the gallery and how to get there.   

Please also visit the Edge of Arabia shop online at http://edgeofarabia.myshopify.com/ to buy books, prints and more from the exhibition.

The MBI Al Jaber Foundation was born from Mohamed Bin Issa Al Jaber's desire to promote better understanding between the peoples of the Middle East and the wider world.

We believe that better understanding will be achieved through education and an awareness of and respect for each others’ cultures.
