Ras Al Khaimah Art

Ras Al Khaimah Art is the Emirate's leading art and cultural festival, founded in 2013 by the Sheikh Saud bin Saqr Al Qasimi Foundation for Policy Research. Originally known as the Ras Al Khaimah Fine Arts Festival, it has evolved into a dynamic creative platform supporting both local and international artists through its annual festival, grants, masterclasses, workshops, and year-round programming. Set within the historic Al Jazeera Al Hamra Heritage Village, the festival serves as a distinctive space where global artistic practice meets Emirati cultural heritage. It welcomes artists and filmmakers from all nationalities and backgrounds across a wide range of disciplines including photography, painting, sculpture, video art, and film.
