Art D’egypte on-ground work & initiatives: In-Kind Donations

 

As part of our private-public partnership model, Art D’Egypte secures in-kind donation for

every heritage site we exhibit in, ensuring that we leave the space better than when we

entered. This year we are proud to announce in-kind donations from Duravit for bathroom

renovations, Signify for lighting adjustments, Orange for free WIFI for the duration of the

3-week event and Badya for landscape renovations.

 

Art Residencies

 

For the first time this year and in the Egyptian art landscape, we managed to secure

residences for our artists at local factories such as KAMA Iron Manufacturing, NADIM

Factory, Meuble el Chark and Marmounil. These residences allow our artists to execute

their vision, with all the raw materials, space and machinery required to do so.

 

The Cultural Awareness Program

 

The cultural awareness program was created to create a link between Art D’Egypte and the

neighborhood of Historic Cairo, engaging the public. Its main goal is to help raise

awareness to the value of our heritage and how to safeguard it. The annual program is

under the auspices of the ministry of antiquities and the patronage of UNESCO.
