August 2024: lives of artists are challenging, yet fulfilling
We aspire to be a free-to-read, share, download, and even print (use your home printer and recycle: a paper printed on the front can still be used!) magazine for all those seeking a moment with arts.
This is only the second edition, and the love we're receiving for our work is overwhelming. At stories over art, we're driven by the thought that the lives of artists are challenging ones, and all it takes to encourage a creative soul to keep going is one tiny pat on the back, a heart on Instagram, or, in our case, words on the pages. Yes, we are aware of our limitations when bringing news and views from the world of art in the Middle East and beyond; at the same time, we are aware of and take pride in bringing your original content. As they say in 2024, accept our gratitude for all the likes, hits, downloads, and subscriptions.
This month, we bring you a unique theatrical production in Dubai, share our experience of the enlightening Raga Jazz in NYC, stir the debate on the value of recycled furniture, attend a jewelry course once again in Dubai, and delve deeper into the future of calligraphy in the era of digital writing tools.
If you want to write for us, connect with us. We're looking for diverse voices and fresh ideas that celebrate the richness and diversity of the art world. You don't have to be an art historian or an art editor; we want to emerge as a space for more voices to share their experiences of what attending concerts, visiting exhibitions, or even coloring in an adult book means to them and more. These pages are yours; fill them up with.
P.S: In an era of ChatGPT and Paywalls, we’re daring to create original content and offer it to our readers without a fee. Your support would go a long way. Subscribe to the portal, and meet us on socials as well.
