Dubai Culture and Arts Authority (Dubai Culture) is excited to relaunch its School of Life initiative this September, themed ‘The Journey Begins Again,’ at Dubai Public Library branches.
Aligning with the ‘Back to School’ period, the initiative aims to foster creativity, community engagement, and personal development through a range of educational workshops and interactive activities.
This month, over 20 sessions will be offered across new clubs including the Family Development Club, Wellness and Nutrition Club, Career Club, and Comics Club, alongside established groups like the Cinema Club, Art Club, Chess Club, and Book Club. These workshops are designed to enhance skills in communication, time management, etiquette, and self-confidence, while also helping participants achieve a balanced work-life experience.
Highlights include Al Mankhool Public Library’s ‘Youth Etiquette: Mind Your Manners’ workshop for students, which teaches essential self-introduction skills, and the ‘Sustainability and Climate Action Workshop,’ focusing on climate change strategies. The library will also host Cinema Club sessions on ‘Storytelling Through Video’ and ‘Introduction to Video Editing.’
Al Safa Art and Design Library will feature a Book Club session on Stefan Zweig’s ‘Marie Antoinette,’ along with Comics Club activities inspired by manga and interactive storytelling. Art enthusiasts can explore painting techniques on various surfaces in the Art Club’s sessions. Additionally, the Wellness and Nutrition Club will offer workshops on ‘Jam Making’ and ‘Optimizing Your Morning Meal,’ while Umm Suqeim Public Library will present ‘Healthy Snack Creations.’
At Hatta Public Library, the Family Development Club will conduct a session on ‘The Art of Setting & Decorating Tables,’ teaching elegant and cost-effective table settings. Al Twar Public Library will host Chess Club sessions, including ‘Ready for the Chess Arena,’ and Career Club workshops on interview mastery and professional networking.
Dubai Culture has officially trademarked the School of Life brand, ensuring high-quality content led by expert trainers. The initiative promises a rich educational journey, offering hands-on experiences and valuable knowledge to enhance personal and professional growth.
