Expect to see everything from traditional paintings and pottery to AI-powered artworks. The event brings together a wide range of creative styles, so there’s plenty to look at — and maybe even something new to discover. Aside from the art displays, there’s a line-up of live music, poetry, and workshops. You can join in, meet other art lovers, or just wander through the exhibits.
There will also be panel discussions diving into topics like women’s role in the art scene, how creativity can drive change, and the link between finance and art. It’s a chance to hear new perspectives and see how art connects to daily life.
