SUMMARY:Children's Biennial
DESCRIPTION:What a good idea this is: the Abu Dhabi Festival is running the first outdoor children’s art biennale in the Middle East Under the theme How the World Feels\, the Biennale will explore how children experience the world through touch\, sound\, movement and light. \nFeaturing works and workshops by UAE-based artists and an international collaboration with National Gallery Singapore\, the Biennale – curated by Dana Almazrouei – will offer family sessions\, workshops and an interactive guide Nine participating artists are Alia AlShamsi\, Aya Afaneh\, Hana El-Sagini\, Moza Almatrooshi\, Moza Almazrouei\, Meera Almazrooei\, Nada Almosa and Sarah Afaneh\, plus Indonesian artist Eko Nugroho; says the blurb\, “they will transform Umm Al Emarat Park into a space where audiences of all ages can encounter art through touch\, sound\, movement and light … Through open-ended experiences\, children are invited to experiment\, question\, collaborate\, imagine and create their own meanings”. \nSays Dana Almazrouei: “We wanted to ask the kind of questions adults often stop asking: what stories lie beneath the soil? How does sound travel through a park? Working with each artist\, we thought first about how a child would experience the piece\, and what they might carry with them afterwards … Play is how children come to understand the world. As historian Johan Huizinga observed\, play creates temporary worlds shaped by shared rules and imagination\, and that’s what we hope this park becomes. It isn’t just a way to make art accessible; it’s how children think\, discover and build their own stories\, together.”

SUMMARY:UAE National Orchestra: Sing for the Nation
DESCRIPTION:This concert by the UAE National Orchestra and choir puts the emphasis on ‘national’ with “an evening where we come together in love for the nation\, sharing moments of pride and belonging … a space where we gather as sons and daughters of this homeland – citizens and residents alike”. \nThe programme includes melodies from the 1970s to the present that have accompanied national celebrations and defined moments in the country’s history; this time\, students from the Abu Dhabi Department of Education and Knowledge’s (ADEK) Nabati Poetry initiative will join the Orchestra and Choir on stage. Nabati poetry\, the vernacular verse of the Arabian Peninsula\, has carried the history and identity of the Emirates across generations.
