To party, or not to party, that is never the question because there’s nothing better than dancing the night away with your peers. Now we don’t know who exactly gets to decide which weekend is the last weekend of Sahel, but we would like to negotiate a couple of extra days of beach fun and partying. We are excited for all the season closing events at Sahel this weekend, but there’s also so much more happening in the capital. Find out where you want to be this weekend by checking out our list of the hottest events that will be taking place.
Thursday
Acrylic Painting Workshop with Aya Sinjab at Ahimsa
Every time you feel artistic, you buy yourself a few paintbrushes and some acrylic paint. What happens afterward is usually an abomination masquerading as art. Instead of going through this cycle every time you feel creative, join Aya Sinjab this Thursday who will teach you the basics of acrylic paint and all the real techniques that will help you become the next Andy Warhol.
