Family Sundays at the Jameel: Water Springs and Folktales

Join us for a special Family Day at Jameel Arts Centre inspired by the exhibition The Storyteller and the Obedient Tide by Jumana Emil Abboud. This interactive day draws from Jumana’s imaginative approach to storytelling, folktales and memory.

The activities are free to attend and run all day to encourage and support creativity and imagination. Jameel Arts Centre strives to provide space for children to share stories, and to foster cultural awareness through artistic exploration that supports healthy child-development and growth.

Family Sundays at the Jameel are suitable for all ages. All materials and step by step guides are provided. Family Sundays are held every last Sunday of the month, which coincides with The Farmers’ Market at Jameel!

Children and families are invited to explore their own stories and connections through a range of self-led activities.

Join us for a captivating performance by Srj and Jad from 12:30PM, where sitar and oud come together in a rich musical dialogue. Blending Indian and Levantine classical traditions with contemporary expression, this immersive experience offers a soulful journey through sound, culture, and storytelling. Presented in collaboration with 963Hz.
