We are incredibly proud of the talented girls from Downe House Muscat who were among the winners of the Emotions of the Ocean art competition, curated by Green Life Art Center. These young artists were invited to attend and be celebrated at the Netherlands Culture Week event held at the @bait_alzubair gallery. It was a night of art, photography, music, culture, and recognition, marking 400 years of Dutch-Omani maritime connection.
