JEDDAH: The Historic Jeddah Program announced the launch of several activities to strengthen Saudi Arabia’s local economy and make the country a cultural and economic tourism destination.
The activities were launched under an initiative entitled “Balad Al-Fann,” and will run until March 9.
Through the universal language of art, the initiative seeks to enhance the Kingdom’s cultural scene, provide unique sensory experiences, increase awareness and encourage visitors to visit Historic Jeddah, also known as Al-Balad.
“Balad Al-Fann” will present four art exhibitions, music programs and various theatrical performances, as well as a range of local restaurants, and organized school visits to enrich students with artistic content.
