Hand-embroidered and folkloric clothes, in addition to a set of heritage tools and paintings, were among the most important exhibits of the the artistic heritage exhibition hosted by the Arab Cultural Center in Qamishli in cooperation with the United Nations Development Fund.

In a statement to SANA, Faiza Al-Qadri, director of Al-Qamishli cultural centre, stated that the artistic and heritage exhibits displayed in the exhibition embodied the uniqueness and achievements of the Syrian woman during her long history. The exhibits of the woman’s products were handcrafted away from machine work as the embroideries and the folk clothes displayed the folkloric character, civilization, and history of the ancient region.

The artist Rashid Al-Hussein, who participated in a group of oil paintings that reflected issues concerning women , said that the exhibition came as a renewal of the cultural activity after it had stopped  for a period of time, in compliance with the procedures to address the Corona virus. 

Ramtha Chamoun, head of the Permaya Folklore Band, indicated that the band’s participation in the exhibition came through a group of women’s folk costumes in an attempt to highlight the folkloric costume of all social components in the region.
