Sharjah Calligraphy Museum
The Sharjah Calligraphy Museum showcases the art of calligraphy and is the only museum in the Arab world. The museum is arranged around a bright, covered courtyard, highlighting the ageless Islamic art form of calligraphy, from its earliest Kufic scripts to its more recent, fluid variants.
The Calligraphy Museum is an educational adventure that takes you on a historical trip through the evolution of Arabic script. Those who love the luxuries of imaginative indulgence and grandiose surroundings will find paradise here. Likely, the depictions of calligraphic forms, texts, and letters in the pictures will shock and amaze you.
Canvas, wood, paper, and ceramic works by both local and internationally recognised calligraphers are represented in the collection. A little motivated right now?...
