Taif Art Gallery

Your first visit to Taif Gallery will allow you to experience the artistic energy expressed in the cross-cultural exchange of current artists through a multi-purpose art space.

The display includes priceless historical relics, some of which are over a century old. As you stroll through its halls, you'll notice some of the most exquisite artistic details, including furnishings, tableware, and clothing. This will give visitors a mental picture of life in Taif. Through the presentation of exhibitions that cross the boundaries of genre, materiality, and conceptual thought, the gallery has encouraged an aesthetic syncretism debate both locally and internationally.

Highlights:

• To put the Arabian Peninsula on the map of the arts, local businesses and artists have been working for many years to promote local talent while simultaneously establishing relationships with cultural organisations in other nations. These can be found in galleries and cultural establishments that exhibit works of art made by Taif-based artists as well as artists from other regions of the Kingdom and the world.
• The museum is particularly tranquil because it is an open-air art exhibition that is open every day of the year. It is distinguished for its cultural attractiveness by the statues and artefacts that line its public roundabouts and beaches.
• Through a variety of temporary exhibitions organised in partnership with other international cultural organisations and its collection, Taif Gallery offers a thorough showroom of regional artistic output. It also provides a training facility and encourages the development of the Saudi art scene through workshops, talks, and other activities.
