The third edition of the Empower Her Art Forum (EHAF), organised by Art Today, launched on Friday with a ceremony held at the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM).
Running until 20 May, the forum features over 200 female artists from over 35 countries.
EHAF, which aims to empower women, held three panel discussions on its second day on various topics, such as Women Shaping Identity Through Art & Culture, Voices of Women Leading Transformation, and Women Disrupting the Creative Economy.
This year, the forum's programme includes workshops on creativity, visual arts, psychology, painting and drawing, and various expressive techniques.
Over 10 workshops will be held throughout the forum days, led by international artists from Spain, Germany, Ethiopia, Greece, Turkey, and Oman.
It also features a series of exhibitions showcasing artworks by artists from Finland, Romania, Italy, Serbia, Spain, Bahrain, India, Qatar, and other countries.
Palestine is on display through the works of Palestinian artists Amira Mannah and Dina Mattar, who shed light on the Palestinian experience by weaving stories of resilience, identity, and hope.
Participants in the discussions and workshops can benefit from the knowledge and expertise of several Egyptian and international women artists.
