Shop
Jameel Arts Centre offers diverse workshops to foster and encourage sustainable art practices. In this series of sustainably focussed workshops, families collaborate and learn to recycle everyday materials into tangible and symbolic artworks.
In this hands-on making workshop, participants learn to repurpose leftovers, herbs and spices as part of a waste-conscious soap project.
Led by Rouba Shaath, participants make a soap specific to their tastes and needs through the melt-and-pour soap-making process. Participants reuse discarded materials from their homes, such as dried foods and readily available items, as tools and materials for their soap projects. The workshop includes a tutorial, discussion, Q&A, and individual making time.
The workshop is open to all ages; participants below the age of 12 will require an accompanying guardian to help them.
