About Ras Al Khaimah Art

Where creativity meets tradition

Inverted Commas highlights inspiring and important ideas.

Founded in 2013, we've grown from a small festival of 30 emerging Ras Al Khaimah-based artists to become the emirate's cultural event of the year. This year, the Ras Al Khaimah Fine Arts Festival is reborn as Ras Al Khaimah Art. Beyond the Festival, Ras Al Khaimah Art is a beacon of creativity, nurturing year-round programs that ignite dialogue. We exist as a hub that empowers emerging creatives and the community through grants, masterclasses, and workshops to cultivate their crafts and talents. Join us on this captivating journey as we redefine the creative scene of our emirate and beyond.

The Festival

As a homegrown cultural happening, Ras Al Khaimah Art provides an immersive and sensory cultural experience to local and international visitors. Ras Al Khaimah Art fuses the modern and the ancient, bringing together a variety of artforms whilst stimulating dialogue between artists, authors, creatives and the community during the vibrant, authentic, and cultural festival steeped in more than a decade of heritage.
