Doha, Qatar: M7, Qatar’s epicentre for innovation and entrepreneurship in fashion, design and technology, will host a series of public programmes timed to Ellsworth Kelly at 100, which opens on October 31, 2024. Organised by Glenstone Museum (Maryland, USA), the exhibition celebrates the American artist’s centennial and spans his seven-decade career. The schedule of programmes will run from August 2024 to January 2025 and will introduce MENA-region visitors to the artist’s work and legacy.
The programme will cater to a variety of audiences, including emerging and established designers, the general public, schools, children and families as well as community groups. Public programmes will include workshops for kids and families, sensory-friendly workshops, engagement opportunities for adults, public lectures, school visits and teacher training, and a special collaborative programme looking at Ellsworth Kelly and Islamic design.
The programme will be delivered in collaboration with a variety of partners, including other QM entities, schools, educators and local creatives.
