ALL ABOUT ART DUBAI

Benedetta Ghione, Executive Director of Art Dubai talks to us about how it could help your child get involved in making and loving art.

Benedetta Ghione has worked with Art Dubai for the past seven years, helping to nurture artistic practice, cultural development and education initiatives. Let's look at how this work helps kids engage with art.

What is Art Dubai? 

Art Dubai is the Middle East region's leading international art fair and the leading fair for the Global South. However, over the past 17 years, it has developed into so much more than an annual event.

We now offer a year-round creative programme which includes activities for over 6000 school children in the UAE. We are proud of our role as a catalyst for, and an important driver of Dubai's cultural economy; and to be regarded as a home for the next generation of so many galleries around the world, who choose to exhibit at the 5-day fair. This coming March, we will present over 130 participants from more than 40 countries and six continents across four gallery sections: Contemporary, Modern, Bawwaba and Digital.
