I was blown away by the stunning exhibits showcasing the rich cultural heritage of Islamic art. It was more than just an event – it was an immersive experience that nourished my soul and expanded my understanding of Islamic art and culture. I left feeling inspired, educated, and connected to a global community of like-minded individuals. I highly recommend this event to anyone passionate about art, culture, and spirituality.

I honestly can’t thank you enough for making this possible. I’m so overwhelmed right now. I never thought this day would come where I would learn from such great Ustadhs. I am beyond grateful.

The Islamic Art Week 2024 was a transformative experience that truly celebrated the depth and diversity of Islamic heritage. The workshops and exhibitions provided an excellent platform for artists and enthusiasts to connect, learn, and be inspired. It was heartwarming to see how Islamic art continues to bridge cultures, foster unity, and ignite a deep appreciation for its timeless beauty. The Global Islamic Centre for Art has once again set a benchmark for excellence, seamlessly connecting tradition and modernity in a harmonious celebration of Islamic artistry. I eagerly look forward to future editions of this remarkable initiative!

Listening to artists from around the world with various perspectives had an immense impact on how I view art, community and world. It's been an incredible experience. Words may not fully capture the profound mindset shift it has sparked, but the impact is truly transformative. It felt like you are swimming in a lake, thinking of it as the only reality and some people show you the ocean and your mind goes like wow.. Subhan'Allah❤️

As a virtual newcomer to the world of islamic art - geometry and paint - I am thrilled to have discovered a community online which is also engrossed in learning more about it. I greatly appreciate the opportunities which artists offer to study online and to follow the work of others on social media. I just loved this first Islamic Art Week, and look forward to watching these sessions again - beauty and colour during the dark days of a winter in the UK.

I have been to different zoom conferences in the past where speakers have run over time, hosts have been disorganized and everything felt rushed. Islamic Art Week was so well run. Everything is on time, but nothing feels rushed and every session is amazing!

This event expanded my interest in Islamic art by introducing me to new artists and ideas I wouldn't have found in my own explorations in such a convenient format.
Erin M

It was a great opportunity for all…every session was full of knowledge and I learned so much in a week than I have in 6 months! To learn from artists from all around the world in a week is something I never imagined. Thank you so much to GCIA and the team. Everything was perfect.

Seeing the journeys of creative individuals and artists and learning about all the details they experienced has deeply inspired me to change my career into art - something that I wish was not just a hobby, but as a way of life and a lifelong expression.

Abaq K

You did a beautiful job! It was worth the lack of sleep! I am headed to the art supply with my short list. If there had been internet and a seminar like this when I was young, it would have changed my direction on art. It opened my mind and heart to new angles, all based on Islam

I am a complete novice so to come away with pieces of artwork that I created alongside the artists was amazing. I can't believe the event was free! I've been telling anyone who'll listen about how great it was. Thank you for putting on this event, and for making the portal so user-friendly!
