SUMMARY:City Circles: Architecture beyond walls – the role of landscaping in urban placemaking
DESCRIPTION:Part of Guggenheim Abu Dhabi’s ongoing City Circles programme exploring the connections between architecture\, the environment\, and urban life\, this conversation explores how culture is shaped not only inside museums and galleries but also in the public spaces and gardens where people gather\, meet and spend time together. How can landscape architecture create places that reflect local identity\, encourage community life and support cultural activity? These talks are both interesting and genuinely useful; let’s hope some kind of publication (print or online) comes out of them … \nThe panel: \nZain Masud Landscape Designer\nLulu Almana Landscape Architect\nLara Zureikat Landscape Architect\nModerator: Iaroslav Volovod Curator\, Guggenheim Abu Dhabi

SUMMARY:City Circles Talk: The Museum as an Urban Anchor
DESCRIPTION:Part of Guggenheim Abu Dhabi’s ongoing City Circles programme exploring the connections between architecture\, the environment\, and urban life\, this conversation looks at the ways museums operate within the urban fabric\, exploring their role in shaping movement\, gathering\, and the use of surrounding public spaces. From accessibility and scale to circulation and engagement\, the discussion will consider how cultural institutions can serve as points of connection within the city rather than isolated destinations … \nThe panel: \nDr Alamira Reem Al Hashimi Urbanist\, Architect\, and Historian\nDr Ahmed Almulla Urban Planner\nFatma Alkhayat Urban Planner\nModerator: Rashed Ajlouni Public Programming\, Guggenheim Abu Dhabi

SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE Robert Powers: The City in Its Details – The Past and Future in Dubai’s Architecture
DESCRIPTION:A close look at Dubai’s urban fabric through the lens of architect and photographer Robert Powers. The exhibition traces the patterns and repetitions in architecture\, streetscapes\, industry\, and infrastructure that shapes the character of a city; taken between 2013 and 2025 in Deira and Bur Dubai\, the photographs document walkable parts of Dubai that have existed since the early days of the Union. Much of this older architecture may soon be demolished\, as its value is often unrecognised – yet these buildings hold beauty\, interest\, and cultural significance\, forming an essential part of the city’s history and collective memory. \n

SUMMARY:Living Continuity: Urban Workshop Series No.1 – Navigating neighborhoods through emotion
DESCRIPTION:This is the first in a series of urban workshops by Sharjah Architecture Triennial offering an opportunity to critically reflect on our practices and roles as urban dwellers and/or practitioners. Workshops are based in Al Jubail “which offers both a spatial construct and conceptual scaffold to facilitate the exploration of the convergence of historical\, social\, ecological\, and economic urban systems … This space is intended as both a real and hypothetical environment to explore what it means for us to practice from a neighbourhood while remaining sensitive to it”. \nThe workshops are led by artists\, researchers and writers who have been invited to offer both insights and tools; this opener is led by Bhoomika Ghaghada\, whose writing concerns structural inequalities and trauma and how they shape everyday realities in the Gulf. Her workshop will explore how the city isn’t static\, and how we may resist the impulse to capture or contain it – “we will begin telling stories from place\, not about“. \nThe evening begins at 7.15pm with an Iftar\, group introductions\, and warm-up exercises at Old Al Jubail Vegetable Market plaza. From 9pm there’s an hour’s walk from Old Al Jubail Vegetable Market along Sharjah Corniche\, regrouping at 10pm for discussion.
