Our Artist Alley is a safe space where emerging and established artists from across the region gather to showcase their latest work, sell their art pieces, take commissions requests for visitors, and network with fellow artists. The Middle East art community is a respectful, supportive, and encouraging community that is deeply passionate about art and creativity, and MEFCC welcomes artists across all experience levels, mediums and walks of life. *T&C's apply.
