Mohammed visits Quoz Arts Fest, interacts with artists
Gulf Today
|January 25, 2026
His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, visited Quoz Arts Fest, marking a significant moment in the festival's 14th edition and underscoring its continued role as a key platform for contemporary culture, creativity, and community engagement in the UAE.
During the visit, Sheikh Mohammed toured Alserkal Avenue, Dubai's cultural district and engaged with artists, cultural practitioners, and members of the creative community.
The visit reflected Dubai's ongoing commitment to supporting the arts, fostering cultural exchange, and nurturing creative and intellectual ecosystems as part of the city's broader vision for innovation and human development.
As part of his tour, Sheikh Mohammed also visited Fiker Institute, an interdisciplinary international affairs think tank based in Dubai and founded by Dubai Abulhoul.
The institute focuses on advancing intellectual discourse across global governance reform, diplomacy, climate security, culture, and the future of multilateralism, positioning culture and critical thinking as essential tools for global dialogue.
He also visited Concrete, where TAPE Dubai, the large-scale immersive installation by Numen/For Use, is presented. Part of the collective’s internationally renowned TAPE series, the installation has previously been realised in cities including Berlin, Paris, Tokyo, and Zagreb, transforming architectural spaces into elastic, inhabitable environments.
