Waw Creative Arts hosts Kids’ Zone at GPU Festival

Discover the exciting workshops, performances, and talent show at the Global Peace & Unity Festival

In the bustling heart of the Global Peace & Unity Festival, Waw Creative Arts will be hosting the Kids’ Zone, which beckons families and culture enthusiasts alike. 

Here, young minds and seasoned souls converge to explore a kaleidoscope of creativity, talent, and unity.

Here are some of the activities to look forward to:

Arabic Calligraphy

Guided by skilled artists, families can step into the world of Arabic calligraphy.

Quran Journaling

The hush of reverence envelops those who choose to journal verses from the Quran. Ink meets paper, and hearts overflow. It’s more than art; it’s a sacred dialogue.

Storytelling: Tales That Ignite Imaginations

Storytellers spin tales—of far-off realms, fantastical characters, and enduring wisdom. Children’s eyes widen, and parents find themselves captivated anew.

Drama Games

Laughter echoes as young actors leap into drama games. Confidence blooms, and friendships spark. The stage awaits.

Poetry Performances: Verses That Resonate

The zone fills with anticipation. Poets step forward, their words like dew-kissed petals. Applause swells, and hearts resonate.

Live Performances

The stage bursts with energy as young singers step forward, their voices creating a harmonious experience.

Interactive art installation: a canvas for Palestine

An interactive art installation for visitors to contribute to – in solidarity with Palestine.
