Sunset Mall marks Ramadan in support of artistic children with special needs

Dubai, UAE, May 2019: Jumeirah-based shopping mall, Sunset Mall, is marking this year’s event
differently in a bid to raising awareness for Dubai Centre for Special Needs (DCSN).
The community mall, which is owned by Dubai Investment Properties LLC, has organized an exciting
Ramadan-themed art exhibition under the themes of “Ramadan, Happiness, Sharing and Kindness”.
Dubbed “Art For Good”, the art exhibition is set to kick off on Thursday, May 23 and run until the
end of Ramadan. The show is free and open to the public from 8 p.m. to midnight.
According to the Sunset Mall spokesperson, the art exhibition is part of the retailer’s support for the
noble Year of Tolerance initiative, which was mooted by His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al
Nahyan, President of the UAE.
“Sunset Mall is proud to be associated with DCSN in marking this year’s Holy month of Ramadan. The
Art For Good exhibition, which will showcase unique works of art created by the students of DCSN, is
our unique way of celebrating this Holy event. Our objective is to enhance awareness for this
important institution,” said Melville Goveas, Operation marketing manager.
As part of its support, Sunset Mall has offered free mall space for the art exhibition. This, according
to Melville Goveas, Operation marketing manager will set a strong foundation for a long-term
partnership with DCSN as well as other like-minded non-profit organizations in the region.
Speaking on behalf of DCSN, Dr Mahshid Salehi- Director of Dubai Center For Special Needs said:
“We are happy to be partnering with Sunset Mall to not only marking this year’s Ramadan in style
but also in giving our students with special needs a platform to show the world what they can do.

students.”

children of DCSN at their center in Al Safa, Dubai.
