Abu Dhabi Cultural Foundation lines up a host of programmes
These events will place the foundation at par with the prestigious international operas and theatres, such as National Theatre in Paris, Albert Hall in London and the Berlin Opera, according to Mohammed Khalaf Al Mazrouei, Director-General of Abu Dhabi Culture and Heritage Authority (ADCHA).
Mazrouei told Khaleej Times that the cultural calendar of the current year would not only present musical and artistic performances but will delve deep into cultural and ethnic diversity in Abu Dhabi with events such as the Emarati local handicraft market entitled “100 per cent Emarati”.
On December 10, he said, the Cultural Foundation would organise the 50-day 'Pearl Festival' to mark the great history of Abu Dhabi as a world capital of pearls. Around 1,000 rare pieces of pearls will be on display.
“As Abu Dhabi is gearing up to mark the silver jubilee of the Cultural Foundation, a plethora of events are being organised,” he indicated.

Contemptible Dreams, Remarkable Rinpoches
Letter from Bodhgaya
By Ven. Kabir Saxena (Losang Tenpa)
“Long enough have you dreamed contemptible dreams. Now I wash the gum from your eyes .” – Walt Whitman
“Samsara is nothing other than how things appear to you.” – Patrul Rinpoche
Sometimes, when I feel a little braver than usual, I go to places that scare me.
