Design exp1

Join us for a design expedition in Al Fahidi Neighborhood! During this session, participants will learn how to use the principles of design to create a zine that explores their perspective of the neighborhood. Participants will be encouraged to explore various topics through the use of textures and materials in an abstract or literal approach, to finally create a layout.

This workshop is a great opportunity for you to strengthen your creative thinking skills.
