The Majlis - Cultures in Dialogue (English Edition)

The majlis - cultures in dialogue is comprised of objects that tell stories. Stories about a long history of exchanges and dialogue in the arabian peninsula and beyond. Stories that one might hear in a majlis, the space present in every arab home where people gather to talk and socialize. Stories that recall the mutual - and often forgotten - influences between the islamic civilization, Europe, India and the far east.
Stories at the core of an ambitious project initiated by the Sheikh Faisal bin Qassim al Thani museum : a multifaceted forum for respectful yet incisive dialogue that connects people, beliefs and cultures.
