The exhibit was beautiful; this was my family’s first time in Saudi for commencement and they really enjoyed getting a glimpse of this a rarely seen type of Saudi art and heritage. Thanks for organizing this Solkem and for giving us a personal tour.

Hello Alaa,

It was an honour to host and give your family a curator-led tour of the exhibition and familiarise them to the richness of the Saudi culture and the vibrancy of its arts scene. This is the precise vision of the Commencement pop-ups: to showcase local talents to our visitors from all over the world.

Thank you again for visiting and for taking the time to write such a lovely feedback.
