The Islamic Arts Biennale extended until May 23

19 April, 2023

We are excited to announce that this multi-sensory exhibition taking place at the Western Hajj Terminal in Jeddah will remain open until May 23. 

Curated by a world class team of experts across the fields of architecture, archaeology and anthropology, the Islamic Arts Biennale is a first-of-its kind exhibition that conveys a holistic perspective of the Islamic arts as a living tradition that connects past, present, and future.

KAUST is an official partner for this event and has organized a series of workshops in partnership with Diriyah Biennale Foundation, to further foster the art ecosystem in the Kingdom.
