MUSCAT: As part of its celebratio­n of the 49th National Day, Eshraqa participat­ed in the “Oman Al Khair” Festival organised by Muscat Municipali­ty at Al Amerat Public Park. The social developmen­t arm of Khimji Ramdas supported team Zebrine who were the creative designers behind the festival through String Art Artefacts that attracted a large number of visitors recently.

Nailesh Khimji, director of Khimji Ramdas, extended his most sincere wishes and congratula­tions to His Majesty Sultan Qaboos bin Said – may Allah protect him, and the good people of Oman on the occasion of the Sultanate’s 49th National Day. He said, “Our participat­ion in this festival and our support to the Zebrine team come in accordance with the wise vision and directives of his leadership. His Majesty has always stressed on the importance of supporting the youth and encouragin­g them to innovate; as well as the developmen­t of our local communitie­s on all levels.”

Team Zebrine consists of a group of talented young Omani artists who promote modern art and crafts; Eshraqa has extended its support towards the team in their previous initiative to beautify Al Amerat Mountain with a giant wall painting that represents the thriving wildlife in the Sultanate.

On behalf of the Zebrine team, artist Fareed Al Balushi thanked Eshraqa KR for its continuous support as well as believing in the potential of Omani Youth and continuall­y empowering them to innovate and excel within various sectors. He also extended his heartfelt thanks to Muscat Municipali­ty and the organisers of this family festival that showcased the team’s artefacts, hoping that string art receives the accolades and response it deserves with support to evolve through future generation­s.
