Ruwi General Education School
Nusaibah bint Ka’b General Education School
Offscreen are proud to announce that two Omani students, Abdulaziz Mohamed Mohsin Al Talib from Ruwi General Education School and Jawair Abdullah Khamis Al Amri from Nusaibah bint Ka’b General Education School, have been chosen from 100s of potential candidates to take part in the 2008 Offscreen student expedition to the UK.
These students, chosen because of their creative and artistic potential, will now join six other young artists from UAE, Lebanon and Bahrain to take part in the pioneering project in July this year. The project is being run in partnership with HSBC Bank Middle East Limited, the British Council and Gulf Air.
Having entered their artwork into a competition, shortlisted students were interviewed by Raiya (British Council), Hanan (HSBC), Ms Naimaa (the Omani artist) and Dr. Sana & Eman (Ministry of Education). The photos here show a selection of artworks and photographs entered into the competition alongside photos from the interviews.
Many thanks to Ghada, Forough and Kaltham (HSBC), Eman and Dr Sana (Ministry of Education) and Raiya, Steve and Amy (British Council) for all their help.
