A workshop for adults which is held as part of the “Keep it Original” project. The workshop will be led by Swiss artist Bettina Amman and French artist Vincent Voillat.
This project brings together Egyptian and European contemporary artists and traditional craftsmen from Cairo to make art. The project is organized by the BA Sennari House (Cairo) in cooperation with the ARCHINOS Architecture. The Embassy of Poland, the British Council, the Embassy of Switzerland, and the Wroclaw Academy of Fine Arts in Poland have all taken part in the project as well.
The project is financed primarily by the European Union Delegation to Egypt as part of the cultural cooperation program between the EU and Egypt, which aims to contribute to the diversity of cultural creativity and improve its accessibility, especially in low income areas, as well as to enhance social participation in cultural production and consumption.
