A creative workshop programme for families in Arabic and English with artist Taim Haimet on Friday afternoons at Hugh Lane Gallery.
From Friday 17 January and for 6 weeks, we are inviting families to come and work with artist Taim Haimet in our creative family workshop series ‘Make and Be’ for parents and children and children aged 6-12. Arabic speaking families are especially welcome.
Each workshop will be fun and creative. We will work creatively together and every adult and child will have the opportunity to work with various types of materials, explore different ideas about art and connect with each other. Everyone is welcome to use and share their experiences in the language they feel most comfortable with.
Artist Taim Haimet can speak Arabic and English and the programme will take place through Arabic, and English. Taim speaks colloqual Levantine (spoken in Palestine , Syria, Lebanon , Jordan, Iraq) but is close to Sudanese Arabic too. People from North African Arab countries ( Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco, Egypt), are likely to be able to converse with Taim as well.
This programme will take place at the Hugh Lane Gallery (Education Space), Parnell Square North, Dublin 1
