The Abu Dhabi Music and Arts Foundation (ADMAF) has announced its educational programme to coincide with the Abu Dhabi Festival 2010 which runs from 20^th March until 7^th April.

Highlights include workshops at the British School Al Khubeirat led by adventurous cellist Matthew Barley, as well as the Salzburg Marionette Theatre’s ‘The Sound of Music’, and Birmingham Stage Company performances and workshops for Shakespeare’s ‘Twelfth Night’.

There will also be a number of workshops with students at Abu Dhabi special needs centres, as well as pre-concert talks for the festival concert programme and the ADMAF debates.

“I am a strong believer in the power of knowledge,” said Hoda Al Khamis-Kanoo, Founder and Artistic Director of the Abu Dhabi Music and Arts Foundation. “This is why the festival will bring together 60 unique events and opportunities in visual and performing arts across the seven Emirates, providing our children with the opportunity for hands-on experiences, lectures, workshops, and performances.”

Tickets are on sale at Virgin Megastores. Part of the ticket sales proceeds will go to the Ewaa Shelter for Women and Children.
