A difficult year for many, 2020 was also hard on the arts, with closures and cancellations affecting artists, galleries and institutions alike. With the arrival of vaccines, this year may be a little more hopeful, and those on the local art scene seem determined to forge ahead. Over the

Art Dubai will be back with a physical fair in March after being forced to go virtual last year, while Sharjah Art Foundation’s March Meeting will also take place after being postponed.

Sharjah Art Foundation will stage an exhibition of its art collection for the first time in March 2021. The foundation has also confirmed dates for March Meeting next year, in addition to an upcoming major show on Lebanese artist Rayyane Tabet.
The annual March Meeting (MM) will take place from March 12 to 21 with a hybrid format of in-person and online
events. Instead of the usual three-day duration, next year’s event will extend over 10 days and will serve as the launch for the Sharjah Biennial 15: Thinking Historically in the Present for 2022. Both events were postponed because of the Covid-19 pandemic.
