Abu Dhabi Music & Arts Foundation
introduction
Through arts education, community arts and special projects, Abu Dhabi Music & Arts Foundation (ADMAF) has been nurturing creativity across the UAE for more than two decades. Since its establishment by Huda I. Alkhamis-Kanoo in 1996, it has been at the forefront of the UAE’s arts sector, inspiring young people, the public and artists, enabling creative expression through a wide range of programs and projects.
By bringing together audiences and institutions, the Foundation has helped embed arts and culture in the heart of the nation. It seeks to nurture the arts, education, culture and creativity for the benefit of society and the advancement of Abu Dhabi’s cultural vision, motivated by the belief that culture is the key that unlocks a nation’s creativity and the language that transcends borders.
Culture is the anchor that unites a nation and ADMAF undertakes a broad range of initiatives and events each year to bring together diverse audiences in the UAE and internationally. As well as fostering close communities and cross-cultural dialogues, the Foundation also recognizes the fundamental right for every person, regardless of age or ability, to access, understand and appreciate cultural expression.

PERSONAL REFLECTIONS
My team and I had been working with the foundation for almost 10x years now. I took care of many high profile and specialized projects with great value to the founder and stakeholders. Dealing with artworks which are located partly all over the country and some that are much larger than any studio background can frame 😉. It is all about improvisations and a great team to produce top level artwork portfolios for upcoming exhibitions. Really enjoyed having the time for quality and the appreciation of my aesthetic values and ideas towards art and its presentation.
