Jameel Arts Centre

Jameel Arts Centre is an independent institution dedicated to exhibiting contemporary art to the public and engaging communities through learning, research and commissions. Founded and funded by Art Jameel, it opened in November 2018 at Jaddaf Waterfront on Dubai Creek, developed with the support of Dubai Holding and Dubai Properties, and describes itself as one of the first contemporary arts institutions in Dubai.

The Centre presents projects, commissions and curated solo and group exhibitions, drawn both from the Art Jameel Collection and from regional and international collaborations, with a particular eye on West Asia and South Asia. Its ten galleries sit alongside the Jameel Library, an open-access research centre on artists and movements in the Gulf and beyond, as well as a sculpture park, project spaces, a writer's studio, a restaurant and a shop. Entry is free.
