With a focus on deepening theatrical training, the camp highlights the importance of nurturing artistic expression within the community, allowing unique narratives to emerge from the sands of the central region.
Exploring Local Stories Through Theater
Dr. Adnan Salloum, an expert in performing arts at the Quarter Century Foundation for Leadership and Innovation, emphasized that the project “حكايات على رمال الوسطى” draws inspiration from the treasures and natural beauty of the central region of Sharjah. This initiative crafts plays that resonate with the local culture, guided by skilled trainers and mentors.

A Platform for Personal Expression
Speaking to “الشارقة 24,” Salloum elaborated on the camp’s purpose, stating that the مخيم الخيال والإبداع serves as an advanced level of theatrical training for participants at the Quarter Century Foundation centers. “We strive to invite a distinguished array of experts to create new scenes and theatrical performances,” he mentioned. This initiative not only enhances their skills but also provides them with a platform to express their inner thoughts and feelings creatively.
Locations of the Creative Camp Across Sharjah
Furthermore, Salloum pointed out that the مخيم الخيال والإبداع has expanded its reach to various locations across the Emirate of Sharjah. Venues include the Quarter Century Theater and Performing Arts Center in Al Zahya Mall, the Puppet Arts Center in the heart of Sharjah, and multiple other centers affiliated with the foundation, particularly in the central region.
