Poetry plays an important role in the daily reality of the Gulf Arab region. Far from being a relic of the past, it has extended its influence through television and the Internet to reach an audience of millions. From Nabati poetry to spoken word, Gulf poetry tells a story of current social and political concerns and narrates shifts in cultural and societal norms in a fast changing region.
AGSIW is pleased to present “Riwaya,†a celebration of heritage in poetry and music drawing from the diverse cultures of the Gulf Arab states.
