City Centre Muscat and City Centre Qurum to host the ‘Art of C’ in Commemoration of Oman National Day

City Centre malls invite aspiring creative minds from the community to participate in this unique art workshop

 

Majid Al Futtaim’s City Centre malls are setting out to unite renowned and aspiring artists in the influential art project called The Art of ‘C’. The Sultanate’s two leading lifestyle destinations have partnered with the Omani Society for Fine Arts (OSFA) to host an interactive art platform in the form of a mentored workshop that will take place at the two malls starting 19th of October. In celebration of the 44th National Day of Oman, 44 ‘C’ sculptures will be placed in key areas in City Centre Muscat and City Centre Qurum, and used as blank canvases for invited artists to transform into wondrous masterpieces.

The Art of C campaign is a tribute to the iconic City Centre logo. Large and small ‘C’ sculptures will serve as blank canvases, placed in main areas of both City Centre Qurum and City Centre Muscat. Embracing the themes of local culture and society, renowned Omani artists from the OFSA including Anwar Khamis Sonia, Abdulmajid Karoh Al Balushi, Iftikhar Hamdoun Al Badawi, Yousef Ali Al Nahwi, Thanaa Saeed Al Humaidi, Zahra Mohammed Al Jamali, Mohammed Shaml Al Balushi together with emerging artists from the community will work in harmony to create celebrated pieces of ‘C’ artworks.
