Art Select in collaboration with the courtyard Bahrain is organising an art event at Al Ghazal Ballroom, at the Ritz Carlton Bahrain Hotel and Spa, under the title 'prayer, peace and pictures'. Giving both masters and young contemporary artists a common platform has become Art Select's forte and this is no more evident than with this exhibition, which has been designed to engage the viewer with its sense of unity and peace and where each work has been chosen with great care.

As the event is taking place during the holy month of Ramadan, a percentage of the art sales will support institutions in need, with the money this year going to Alia centre for Autism. The event will run on August 29 from 8.30pm till midnight, August 30-August 31 from 10am to 1pm and 5pm to 11pm. For more details contact 39771810 or email info@tamna-events.com.
