The most informative and important aspects of Alhamra is the provision of a rich cultural environment to our young and amateur artists and students who had just begun learning arts professionally.
As far as this evening is concerned, “I believe that emotional and mental development is very much important for our youth. Therefore, Alhamra through the medium of acting, dancing, singing and painting remained successful in engaging youth in different activities so they could be able to represent experiences that are hard to verbalise,” he added.
In the cloudy weather the musical event “Hawa-e-Taza” became a super charm for the students who gave their performances while singing to a live orchestra. The evening turned the Alhamra into an exciting and boomed place as one could see scores of people adoring the event.
