Speaking about the Camp, Ms. Laila Abdulla Belhoush, Director of the Summer Camp Project in Al Fahidi Historical Neighborhood, pointed out that the initiative comes within the framework of the Authority’s cultural responsibility to stimulate creativity and innovation among children and promote a culture of active participation from society members by integrating art and creativity within the spaces across Dubai.
The same will contribute to the discovery and development of national talents, and the opportunity for children to invest their time optimally during their summer school vacation.
Dubai Culture believes in the importance of making culture accessible for everyone through extensive cultural events, museums and heritage sites that celebrate authentic national identity and the rich Emirati heritage as well as contribute to the consolidation of feelings of pride in community members. Through the summer camp in Al Fahidi Historical Neighborhood, we aim to highlight heritage sites to younger generations and keep Emirati cultural heritage present in the minds and hearts of young people, motivating them to be inspired by it to continue the path of development and prosperity in Dubai and the UAE.
