Design and execute your own composition—name, proverb, or poetic phrase—to take home.
You’ll depart with your unique calligraphic artwork, ready to display proudly.
ℹ️ For reference only: Itineraries are subject to change.
Join Tarek at the designated venue in the early evening. After a brief introduction to the history and tools of Arabic calligraphy, dive into hands-on practice: begin with basic strokes, then assemble letters into words. Tarek will guide you step-by-step, offering tips to refine your technique. In the final segment, choose a word or phrase to render in your chosen style, then sign and frame your finished piece. No prior drawing or language skills required—just curiosity and patience!
Wear comfortable clothing and bring a small notebook for sketching ideas. Calligraphy ink may stain, so avoid light-colored attire.
