Online Talk: Tanween 2021 – Time to Apply

Tanween is the professional development programme by Tashkeel, open to emerging designers, makers and artisans living and working in the UAE. Each year, practitioners are selected to embark on a journey of experimentation and learning that includes the development of products, from concept to completion, that contribute towards defining a UAE design aesthetic. The final products become part of the Tanween Collection and are revealed to the world at Dubai Design Week. Tashkeel then continues its support by providing funding, marketing and sales resources for a limited-edition product line, enabling each designer to gain entry into the market.

Ahead of the announcement of the 2021 edition of the Tanween design programme, alumni will speak about their experiences of applying and participating and completing the Tanween design programme. Free admission. Seats must be booked for this online talk in advance.
