The Art Centre of the Bahrain Authority for Culture and Antiquities (BACA), in collaboration with the Bahrain Arts Society, announced the launch of an Interactive Art Education Programme, presented alongside the first edition of the "Almasyaf" Summer Art Show, currently taking place at the Centre. Running throughout August and early September, the programme will feature a series of specialised art workshops and guided tours designed to broaden creative horizons, foster a supportive environment for emerging talent, and equip aspiring artists and enthusiasts with the artistic skills needed to develop their creative practice.
The programme opens with an integrated educational experience combining theoretical knowledge with practical, hands-on learning through a diverse range of workshops and creative activities across a variety of artistic disciplines.
The programme begins with a workshop led by artist Sayed Hasan Alsari, taking place over three days from Monday, August 10, between 5 pm and 7 pm. This will be followed by "The Art of Sculptural Making", presented by artist Ahmed Anan, over three days from Sunday, August 16, between 4 pm and 7 pm.
