Times Square Center (TSC) has announced a special Night Souk on Friday (February 13) from noon to 7 pm, offering homemade food items like pastries and cakes and special handcrafted items.

The event will also feature contemporary artwork from members of the Artisans of the Emirates (ARTE) group.

The ARTE stalls will feature hand-made items like decorations, individualist pieces of jewellery, accessories, artwork and photography. ARTE members will give some demonstrations in knitting and embroidery. The animal welfare and charity group Feline Friends will also hold a second-hand book sale.

“With the excitement of the Dubai Shopping Festival already in full swing, TSC is eager to give our shoppers a varied experience with the opening of the Special Night Souk,” said Pierre Issa, director for operations, Sharaf Group. “We are proud to have the members of the Artisans of the Emirates at TSC and we believe that events such as these could go a long way in serving as a platform to highlight the skills and talent of UAE-based artisans.” – TradeArabia News Service
