Students Learn to Use Art to Express Their Links to 2022 World Cup


(MENAFN- Qatar News Agency) Supreme Committee for Delivery and Legacy (SC) has organised several art workshops as part of the Schools Arts Programme, which targets intermediate and secondary schools located in the vicinity of stadiums which will host the 2022 FIFA World Cup Qatar . The students learned to use art to express their passion for football and how their cities and culture are linked to the tournament.

The first workshop was organised for schools in Al Rayyan Municipality. These were Salah Al-Din Independent Preparatory School for Boys, Rafidah Independent Preparatory School for Girls, and Ali Bin Jassem Bin Mohammad Independent Secondary School for Boys.

The workshop was managed by Saudi artist Sadek Wasil, whom the SC selected to implement a recycled art project. In this workshop, materials from the deconstructed Al Rayyan Stadium will be recycled to create works of art which will reflect Al Rayyan Club's longstanding history and help emerging artists develop their artistic talents.

The students saw the workshop as an opportunity to display their talent, express their love for football, and link their skills and knowledge to the major event that Qatar will host in 2022.

"The programme is aimed at promoting students' awareness of the 2022 World Cup installations," said SC Community Engagement Manager Khalid Al Jumaily. "We want students to participate in the organisation of this event. We seek to motivate them to express, through art, how their cities and their culture are linked to the 2022 World Cup," he added.
