(MENAFN- The Peninsula) Doha: The Cultural Village Foundation, Katara, has announced the opening of Al Sadu exhibition in Building 13 from Tuesday, November 30 to December 18, as part of the Katara activities accompanying the launch of the FIFA Arab Cup Qatar 2021 and the Qatar National Day.
About 25 craftswomen who are known for their quality and mastery in the Al Sadu industry will participate in the exhibition, along with fine artists displaying their paintings inspired by the decorations of Sadu. Visitors will also be able to learn about the details of Al Sadu industry.
The exhibition opens its doors to visitors from 10 am until 10 pm, and all the exhibits are available for direct sale to the public. Foreign tourists and Arab visitors to Doha are keen to acquire them as souvenirs that reflect the authentic Qatari cultural heritage, especially after the inclusion of Al Sadu on the UNESCO World Heritage List in September 2020.
Al Sadu is one of the traditional crafts that flourished since ancient times and is still steadfast to this day. The craft has not been affected by technological development and modernity, unlike many other professions that have disappeared and become a part of the past. Al Sadu is considered a Gulf heritage and is a window on the heritage of the ancestors.
