Art of Heritage: Weaving the Past into the Present

Art of Heritage, a prominent organization dedicated to preserving and promoting Saudi heritage, is participating in the Saudi International Handicrafts Week Exhibition (Banan). The organization, which has been a cornerstone of the Saudi cultural scene for over three decades, showcases a diverse collection of over 57,000 heritage pieces.

 Among these is an embroidered map of the Kingdom, which features traditional embroidery techniques such as chain stitch, pyramid stitch, and zigzag stitch. Each region of the Kingdom is represented through unique cultural patterns, from traditional attire to ancient jewelry.

 Beyond its role as a collector and curator, Art of Heritage actively contributes to the revitalization of Saudi heritage. The organization operates a fashion house that reinterprets traditional clothing, blending authenticity with contemporary style. This innovative approach positions Art of Heritage as a platform for creative expression and cultural innovation.

 Furthermore, Art of Heritage is committed to nurturing future generations of artisans. The organization offers handicraft training programs for young people, women, and people with disabilities, empowering them with valuable skills and opening new avenues for economic opportunity.

 As a non-profit organization, Art of Heritage allocates its resources to educational and training initiatives, ensuring the sustainability of Saudi cultural heritage. By documenting and preserving the Kingdom's rich history, Art of Heritage plays a vital role in shaping a future where tradition and modernity coexist.
