There’s a new calligraphy exhibition at Qasr Al Watan in Abu Dhabi

“For the love of Zayed” exhibition.

In collaboration with The UAE Society for Arabic Calligraphy and Islamic Ornamentation.

Abu Dhabi is known for its brilliant exhibitions and now there is a new one at Qasr Al Watan, Abu Dhabi’s cultural landmark that reflects the history, traditions, and journey of the UAE.

The newly launched Arabic calligraphy exhibition, titled ‘In the love of Zayed’, honours the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan al Nahyan, the founding father of the UAE.

 

 

In collaboration with the UAE Society for Arabic Calligraphy and Islamic Ornamentation, the exhibition is a gesture of respect and honour to everything that the founding father has given to the people of this nation.

For those wishing to view this stunning exhibition, head to the Great Hall of the palace and go on  a journey of the founding father’s most meaningful quotes, poems, and words through 41 pieces of art created by UAE-based artists through the art of  Arabic calligraphy.
