About the Ektashif Programme
Ektashif is an annual educational art trip for Qatari artists organised by the Museum of Islamic Art (MIA) that aims to support artists and provide them with new skills in traditional and Islamic arts. In 2023, the selected artists travelled to Granada, Córdoba and Madrid to study the historical landmarks and traditional Islamic art techniques of Spain.
