Jameel Arts Centre holds together a series of tours and workshops for children. The workshops feature a guided tour of the galleries and a discovery journey of artworks followed by creative hands-on activities, unique to each visit and led by artists and educators.
Sessions are free-to-attend with advance registration required. Register by emailing learning@artjameel.org. Limited spaces are available.
This workshop is led by artist Zahra Jewanjee and is designed to teach young participants to draw and paint a self-portrait through detailed observation. It encourages the participants to think about ways of representing themselves uniquely and focusses on process, reflection and imagination.

She is a recipient of the Salama Bint Hamdan Emerging Artist Fellowship, Abu Dhabi.
