‘Arts Telling Stories’ Exhibition Showcases Saudi Heritage under Year of Handicrafts 2025

The "Arts Telling Stories" Exhibition in Madinah serves as a cultural platform that narrates Saudi stories through authentic handicrafts. The exhibition is part of the “Year of Handicrafts 2025” initiatives launched by the Ministry of Culture.
