Qatar Foundation Art Trail programme to visit the 2015 Building today

Over the years, Qatar has invested heavily in arts, sports and education. If you don’t know already, the Qatar Foundation (QF) has a vast collection of public sculptures on display.

If you are someone who is keen on learning more about it, the  QF’s Art Trail programme is just for you.

The Art Trail programme is one where members of the public are taken on guided tours by QF art specialists with the aim of showcasing some of the artwork displayed across Education City.

The latest edition of the programme is well underway and the next tour is set to take place today at the 2015 Building (QF Headquarters), reported Gulf Times.

Catering to different age groups and interests, the initiative strives to inspire creativity among Qatar’s community while increasing artistic appreciation and awareness and also providing opportunities for social interaction and discussion.

Previous tours organised through the current edition of the Art Trail initiative included Qatar National Library and the Minaretein Building (Education City Mosque). 

QF strives to serve as a platform for local and regional artists and designers to showcase their work and is home to many arts and cultural centres and galleries including Mathaf: Arab Museum of Modern Art and VCUarts Qatar.

Upcoming Art Trail tours will take place at Carnegie Mellon University in Qatar on March 9, the VCUarts Qatar Gallery on March 14 and Sidra Medicine on April 6, reported Qatar Tribune.
