Zayed National Museum at Multaqa Festival

On the occasion of the imminent completion of the construction of the Zayed National Museum, the program of lectures at the Multaqa festival introduces everyone to the future exhibition of the museum.

A dynamic program designed to become a platform for discussion and debate, in the form of lectures represents the main objectives of the project. The lectures should facilitate further dialogue between the museum and the public and allow it to become the face of the UAE in the future.

The Zayed National Museum, located in the heart of the Saadiyat cultural district, will become the main museum of the United Arab Emirates. He will tell the history of the country through the prism of life and achievements of Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, the country's first president and "father of the nation." His life is presented against the background of the ancient history of the region, its cultural ties and world significance. The museum will store a state collection of art and artifacts belonging to the ancient and living peoples of the UAE, the Arabian Peninsula and the entire Middle East.

The museum will not only shelter the treasures of the nation, but will also become a scientific center for the study of the national identity of the inhabitants of the UAE, so that all segments of the population can be proud of their cultural heritage. Nearest lectures: "Sheikhs of the Al Nahyan family: rule, politics, diplomacy" (March 18 in the Qasr Al Hosn fortress); "The Appearance of the Great Ruler" (April 16 at the Al Ain Palace and Museum).
