Sharjah Narrator Forum in September

The 21st edition of the Sharjah International Narrator Forum (SINF) will be held between September 22 and 30 at strategic locations across Sharjah, the organisers announced at a press conference held at the Sharjah Research Technology and Innovation Park.

Led by Dr Abdul Aziz Al Musallam, chairman of the Sharjah Institute for Heritage and the Supreme Organising Committee of SINF, along with Aisha Al Hussan Al Shamsi, director of the Arab Heritage Centre of the Institute and General Coordinator of the SINF, the organisers further revealed that this year’s edition will have ‘Animal Stories’ as its slogan. It will include many discussion sessions, training workshops and public events. There will be an accompanying exhibition, virtual events and workshops for children, with participation from 38 countries from around the world.

Al Musallam stressed that the forum has become an exceptional cultural tradition that is held annually, with an updated and relevant calendar of events and activities — thanks to the directives of His Highness Dr Shaikh Sultan Bin Mohammad Al Qasimi, Member of the Supreme Council and Ruler of Sharjah. “Through the forum, we have an excellent opportunity to celebrate our vision,” he said.
