Sharjah: The Sharjah Book Authority (SBA) is organising a unique exhibition of early written material, including books, pamphlets and manuscripts, and a collection of rare artefacts, at its headquarters in Sharjah from April 27 to May 3, 2021.
Titled ‘Tales from the East’, and open from 8pm to midnight each day, the exhibition will also enable the public to engage with academic experts to acquire knowledge and gain an insight into the region’s rich cultural past.
Eminent history and archaeology experts will lead the cultural sessions and panel discussions during the week-long exhibition to discuss the role of manuscripts in unveiling the scientific and cultural achievements of humankind, and address the importance of its preservation for future generations.
