The Saudi Ministry of Culture is now celebrating this rich heritage of Islamic arts by launching the world’s first e-learning platform.

Participants will be able to choose the style of calligraphy as well as the specific calligrapher they wish to learn from as they choose from a variety of training courses, including Arabic calligraphy, gilding and panel making. 

The platform is also a great way for both upcoming calligraphers and well-established artists to explore this ancient art form from home as the world collectively battles the coronavirus pandemic.
