KUWAIT: GIA hosted an art workshop at its Salmiya Branch in Khalid Complex on Oct 18, 2023. The event was held in collaboration with “State of Art”, a local art studio co-founded by Abrar Zenkawi and Ghadeer Al-Awadhi.

The people of Palestine have been living amidst humanitarian crisis, scarcity of basic necessities and terror caused by the Zionist entity. This event was held to raise donations for the betterment of the Palestinian people. The workshop was attended by 20 guests who painted about the idea of a “Free Palestine”. These guests joined by paying a donation based enrollment fee and were later invited to sell their paintings to customers.
