Foster initiatives,
enriching the arts.
An independent, non-governmental cultural organisation producing theatre, dance, and cross-disciplinary work — connecting artists across the Middle East and beyond.
Art as a platform for dialogue
Per Ankh believes that the arts play a vital role in addressing contemporary social challenges and promoting dialogue around global issues and human rights. In an increasingly divided world, there is a growing need for spaces where people can engage with diverse perspectives and participate in meaningful cultural conversations.
Through artistic training, cultural exchange programmes, creative productions, and international collaborations, we create opportunities for artists and audiences to explore complex social realities, amplify underrepresented voices, and foster greater understanding across cultures.
