Creekside Stables
When And Where Are Arabian Horses Painted?
Our Arabians were painted in a large "Stable" facility in Creekside Park
Children's City over a period of 4 months. It was a period that covered the
festivals of Holi and Divali and the Eid holidays as well as Christmas and
the New Year. The city of Dubai (friends and families) visited our Stable
during these holiday periods and many groups of school children watched as
the Arabians were painted by local and regional artists. Tourists were
frequent visitors during the Dubai Shopping Festival and Creekside Stables
became a favorite destination for all. Our Gallery of the 300+ designs
submitted covered a wide range of imaginative styles. Many artists stopped
in to drop off their designs or visit fellow artists working on the project.
Press conferences were held, Arabian's were sanded and painted and we all
watched the Stable of white horses change color as it filled with a brightly
painted herd ready for the streets of Dubai.
We thank the Dubai Municipality and all the staff of Creekside Park and
Children's City for their friendship, hospitality and good cheer - this
public art project would not have been possible without them.
Children's City is open from 10 AM to 10 PM Saturday to Thursday and from 3
PM to 10 PM on Friday. For more information, log on to: Children's City
