Workshop: Hakawati for a day
at –
Welcome to a workshop with Hand i Hand Cultural Association! This workshop invites participants to become hakawatis for a day. Open to all ages. No registration is required, free admission.
Through Wafaa Suliman’s pedagogical methods, storytelling techniques, props, and the Halaqa format, participants will explore oral storytelling, stage presence, and cultural heritage through practical and creative exercises.
The workshop is inspired by Bouchra Khalili’s artistic practice and the concept of Halaqa. At 15:00 the same day, there will be an Arabic tour of the ongoing exhibition.

The workshop is organised in collaboration with ABF Malmö.
