8/18/25, 9:43 AM ‘Knowledge Lounge’ launches rich line-up of knowledge and creative events for August - Middle East News 247

Alexandria hosted the ‘Book from My Library’ session, as part of its efforts to promote knowledge

engagement beyond the UAE. Activities continued with the ‘Little Calligrapher of Knowledge’ workshop,
teaching children the art of Arabic calligraphy and fostering their aesthetic appreciation. In Sharjah and
Ajman, participants engaged in a collective reading session of the ‘Finding Your Voice’ book, promoting

dialogue through shared literary experiences.

The initiative also hosted a ‘Diary Writing’ workshop, encouraging participants to engage in the creative

documentation of their personal experiences. In commemoration of World Humanitarian Day, a special
event was held to inspire values of giving, humanity, and compassion within a voluntary framework.

Interactive sessions continued with ‘An Inspiring Story Told by a Bird,’ an activity that invited children to
craft narratives from imaginative perspectives. In Khorfakkan, an event was held on a specialized
personal finance management book, reflecting the initiative’s emphasis on economic and financial
awareness. The ‘Stories Inspired by Pictures’ workshop further bridged the gap between visual imagery

and narrative creativity.

In Abu Dhabi, a session dedicated to the book ‘Ikigai’ introduced participants to the philosophy of

balanced and purposeful living. This was followed by a ‘Writing Lounge’ session that featured literary
works as part of a broader creative awareness series. In Fujairah, the Knowledge Lounge celebrated
Emirati Women’s Day with a reading centered on women’s voices and experiences. The program
concludes with two sessions – one in Dubai highlighting women’s literary contributions in the UAE, and

another in Al Ain offering a reading of a novel exploring philosophical and emotional themes.

In addition to these core events, the Knowledge Lounge is also hosting a series of activities throughout

August. These include reading sessions such as ‘Whose Doll Is This?,’ creative interactive workshops like
‘Your Favourite Character: Let’s Create It Together,’ which merges drawing and literature, alongside the
‘Read Book Series’ workshop to introduce educational and developmental books to participants.
Additionally, ‘Let’s Create an Illustrated Story’ and ‘Little Calligrapher of Knowledge’ will also be held,

enriching the month’s agenda.
