#QatarCreates

M7 - Msheireb Downtown

Creative industry leaders and trailblazers in Qatar and from across the globe will gather in Doha from 25 to 31 March for the latest edition of #QatarCreates – a dynamic national movement that promotes and celebrates Qatar’s diverse cultural scene and boosts the creative economy through exchange, dialogue and collaboration within the fields of art, architecture, fashion, design, and digital culture. M7, the creative hub in Msheireb Downtown Doha, will serve as the epicentre of programming for #QatarCreates.

#QatarCreates

Her Excellency Sheikha Al Mayassa Bint Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani, Chairperson of Qatar Museums, said: “We are excited for #QatarCreates to be headquartered at M7, where creativity, design, and collaboration are celebrated year-round by Qatar’s thriving artistic community. We hope that these #QatarCreates activities will not only inspire and support innovators, both locally and globally, but that they will be enjoyed by the public and all who visit Qatar in the coming weeks and months. #QatarCreates is about showcasing the best of Qatar to the world and inviting the best of the world to share their work with Qatar. This mutual exchange lays the foundation for a stronger and more sustainable cultural infrastructure for future generations.” 
#QatarCreates serves to globalise the local and localise the global; create local capacity development and knowledge transfer opportunities; support the growth of Qatar's creative economy; and enhance audience experience. For the first time #QatarCreates will host two editions in a year – in March and October of 2022.

10th Anniversary

This is the 10th Year of Culture. So many new ideas and collaborations have been created over the past decade from Qatar-Japan in 2012 until now, when for the first time, we're partnering with an entire region - MENASA. Here’s to many more years of connecting with old friends and friends to be.
