Jubilee in the Street
The Opening was great, having Jordanian Artists present, evaluating and enjoying the efforts of young artists among whom were students of the Artists themselves. The Jubilee School was present, with its director general: Ms. Abla Zureikat, Fine Arts Teacher Ms. Sana' Madadha, who declared that she was the most proud person among the attendants, and the significant contribution of the jubilee students, who played music, sang and made the children and old women sign with them, and others who displayed their art works along with some who made direct painting and worked with clay (Salsal) live!!!
The main participants in the Event were: Rasha Hinnawi and Ahlam Idreis (photography), Haneen Shalash, Rashed Nas'a, Marwa Moghrabi, Sara Dreini and Huda arabani (paintings) and the Jubilee School students in paintings, music and clay works.
Mr. Bqa'i along with the GAM representatives was very impressed with this effort which made the event happen within 10 days, Mr. Bqa'i listened to presentations made by the participants, and had discussion with them about their works.
Unfortunately, Sara Dreini did not have the chance to do her presentation before GAM and our gusts, some thing that happened NOT as planned and NOT as expected, but I tell dear Sarah, that this event was made for the largest number of peple to see and enjoy, the mere fact that her works are being now displayed to any visitor or guest to the event is an achievement by itself, the event and the works were not made and displayed only for GAM to see, we know how much you just like us wanted your works to be presented to Mr. Bqa'i, but it seems that the setting (which was all arranged by GAM, being the sponsor) and the leading of the guest (which was also planned by GAM) lead to this sad fact for which we all feel sorry. However, we are proud of having the Works of Sara displayed in this street for more 5 days to go and we all thank Sara for the effort, she, her sister and Abdallah put in this event, and their contribution as beginners in arranging events is highly appreciated.
Finally, I would like to thank and thank and thank Wael Attili for brining the idea, Wael Attili is not the only who made the suggestion of this event, but also the one who contacted the participants, met with them, took them to the site to have them know and imagine their works displayed, designed the invitations, posters and announcement, hanged the works, made the biography cards of each participant and yes, was the man behind the scenes working hard with full heart and passion..Thank you Wa'el..Thank you very much.
I also thank Ali Dabbas and Laith abu Shahin for handling the logistics of materials, labels, and other follo up that needed patience and hard work..(I tell you Sara there were other people who really worked hard too!)..I thank Nabeel Abu Ata who made the connection with GAM at the first place that made them sponsor us and help us realize this event within a very short period of 10 days. I thank all the board members who were present, the guests who attended the event, our friends from the Jubilee, graduates and students, and our families and friends.
Thank you every body, and I call upon every body who can spare some time to go and enjoy the works of Jubilee students..in the Street!
