As an artist myself, the Islamic Art Festival has been a wellspring of inspiration. The conferences provided insights into the deep historical and spiritual dimensions of Islamic art, while the workshops allowed me to refine my skills.

I first heard about the Islamic Art Festival from my friend Irfan Qureshi, who always wanted to promote Islamic Arts around the globe. He shared with me that it was a historic occasion in Pakistan, unlike anything seen before. Although I couldn't attend in person, I was deeply impressed by the festival's commitment to showcasing and celebrating Islamic art in all its forms. It's heartwarming to know that such events exist, bringing together art enthusiasts, scholars, and artists to celebrate our cultural heritage. I look forward to attending future editions and being part of this inspiring celebration.
