CS 27 will also include two festivals: The Autumn Festival and International Museum Day, which promise to be bigger and better than ever.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are blessed to be back again to our full programme this season after the pandemic. This year is exceptional, as DAI is celebrating its 40<sup>th<\/sup> anniversary. After years of sharing culture, art, history, awareness, and passion, we will continue what my husband Nasser Sabah al-Ahmad al-Sabah started when he bought the first piece in The al-Sabah Collection. This season we will grow on what he started, expanding our legacy, with a wider vision and stronger bonds with the world, said DAI\u2019s director General Sheikha Hussa Sabah al-Salem al-Sabah.<\/p>\n<p>This season will include two new activities. <em>Hiwar: Success is a Woman <\/em>and a book club led by Dr Hanan Muzaffer.\u00a0 <em>Hiwar<\/em> is the Arabic word for dialogue and that\u2019s what DAI\u2019s offering. Featuring five exceptional Kuwaiti women in different fields, these evenings will include an English conversation between the guest and a moderator. The book club is a book discussion circle in English, starting with Wendy Shaw\u2019s <em>What is \u2018Islamic\u2019 Art?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Always a highlight, Cultural Season 27 will fill the rafters of the Yarmouk Cultural Centre with a wonderful variety of live music.\u00a0Sticking with tradition, the Music Circle starts and ends with Kuwaiti music but in between there is a bit of everything.<\/p>\n<p>DAI has children\u2019s and family programmes for schools, families and kids from 4 months to 18. All activities allow participants to develop important collaboration, communication, creativity and critical thinking skills. Moreover, DAI will be opening its 3<sup>rd<\/sup> kid\u2019s exhibition <em>The Home of Comforting Words<\/em>. The exhibition was curated by the kids in DAI\u2019s Children\u2019s Art Workshop (CAW) who decided to create an exhibition that presents objects from The al-Sabah Collection. The exhibition, focusing on calligraphy, will open in December. Like the rest of the Cultural Season, the children\u2019s programme promotes cultural awareness, provide opportunities to be creative, and encourage fun!<\/p>\n<p>DAI\u2019s Director General Sheikha Hussa Sabah al-Salem al-Sabah concluded: \u201cWe encourage people in Kuwait \u2013 Kuwaitis, residents and visitors \u2013 to participate in some or all of our activities. The upcoming season offers many opportunities to explore and enjoy the art and culture of the Islamic world.
