Solidarity through volunteering – Michael Church

This is the third in a series of original testimonies from community members who have given their time to volunteer during the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Today, we feature Michael Church, a Grade 10 student at The KAUST School and member of the Boy Scouts of America (BSA), who helped coordinate volunteers to deliver the face coverings ordered by the community.   
Read Michael’s story on The LENS.


The cinema has reopened! What are the requirements to get in? 

Discovery Cinema has reopened yesterday with limited capacity to ensure physical distancing.

Make sure you sit on a seat which is marked as available. Wearing a face covering is also mandatory to get in the cinema and during the movie.

Now it’s time to have a look at the movie schedule.


Once again, we’d like to thank you for your cooperation and ongoing adherence to directives. These have been designed to keep you safe and to help manage the crisis.
