Persian Art Week at AUK!

Dear friends of art in Kuwait,

Prominent Persian artists Mr. Hassan Meshkinfam has been invited to the American University of Kuwait this week to give talks and lead workshops for our students, however a number of events surrounding his visit are open to the general public.  Please feel free to join us if possible.  We have put together a schedule of events that we are calling Persian Art week.  The events open to the public are as follows:

1)        Monday- Wed., Feb. 21-23:  Photography & Painting Exhibition.  Liberal Arts Building, 5th Floor. 10 a.m. – 5 p.m.

2)        Wednesday, Feb. 23: Contemporary Persian Art and Design, Lecture by guest lecturer, Mr. Hassan Meshkinfam and Professors Maryam Hosseinnia, William Andersen, Gholam Vatandoust in the Auditorium from 12:30-3:00 p.m.

I know that everyone is busy with the celebrations this week in Kuwait, however we had a number of visa problems with Mr. Meshkinfam's visit so this is the only week that we could hold these events.

See above poster for more details.

Hope to see you soon!
