Participants will be introduced to the distinctive shapes, lines and movement of Arabic script, learning how calligraphy can be transformed from written words into expressive works of art. With guidance from Shakeel, participants will create their own calligraphy painting, experimenting with composition and decorative elements to develop a unique piece to take home.

Whether you have an interest in art, calligraphy or simply enjoy trying something new, this workshop offers a creative space to slow down, explore the beauty of Arabic script and create something of your own.
