The National Museum of Egyptian Civilization organized a live workshop on “String Art”, a widely-practiced and celebrated form of art. String Art is the art of arranging colored threads strung between points, pins or nails hammered into a covered wooden board to form beautifully colored geometrical shapes, in a very simple manner. The workshop was exceptionally admired by the attending audience, as they enjoyed imitating art works from NMEC’s collections and learned through the process, the very simple steps of beautifully creating art pieces using accessible materials such as nails and threads.
