Art Exhibitions : El Sawy Culturewheel is proud to host exhibitions of well-known artists, as well as being a platform for yet unknown students and beginners.
Seminars: initiate dialogue in different subjects on current and long-lasting topics. We value thinking and the freedom of thought and try to encourage them in our seminars.
Awareness Campaign : Every year the El Sawy Culturewheel focuses on one main theme. 2009 was chosen to be the ‘year of Dignity’, in which efforts are directed towards four main points: 1. eliminate the profession of begging 2. revive manhood and courage 3. keep cleanliness and 4. work proficiently. Please check our History of Awareness Campaigns for more information on previous years.
Workshops : Next to concerts, art exhibitions, theater plays and seminars the El Sawy Culturewheel also offers a number of workshops teaching the principles of art in all its disciplines on all levels from beginner to advanced.
Library : The Zamalek main center also provides a library. Although many people enter the El Sawy Culturewheel without noticing it, since it is located behind the gate, our poor library is rich in possessing a wide range of books for children and adults in Arabic, English and French. Everyone may enter, pick and read a book. El Sawy Culturewheel members can even borrow the books and read them at home.
Magazine : After only four years of existence, in 2007 El Sawy Culturewheel launched its quarterly magazine El Sakia el Warakeya - an integrated Culture magazine, written in Standard Arabic, directed towards the youth. El Sakia el Warakeya magazine provides information about all fields of culture and covers news of the El Sawy Culturewheel as well as other cultural centers.
Radio : Now in 2009, the El Sawy Culturewheel started its own online radio
station Sound of Sakia. It's mission is to enrich the cultural scene in Egypt by expanding the reach of El Sawy Culturewheel’s stage for local artists, workshops and speakers through high quality cultural online programming to be accessible to a broader audience in Egypt and worldwide.
Children : Children are on top of our priorities. Therefore we initiated the program Let me Think – LMT. LMT is a workshop designed to teach children to think, imagine and develop solutions and ideas for specific virtual situations and problems. The aim of the program is to show children how thinking could be a fun activity, by inciting them to do it informally through mind exercise and games.http://www.culturewheel.com/eng/Activities
