Street in narrative - Kuwait City 2017

In narrative held its second workshop in Kuwait City in October 2017. Through the 7-day workshop, the aim was to shed light on a recently revitalized street in Kuwait City. Mubarak Al Kabeer Street has seen a resurgence of activity in the recent years, thanks to the many micro coffee shops and restaurants popping up in disused spaces. The street also played a vital role in the modern history of Kuwait. Souk al Manakh [infamous for the stock market bubble crash back in the 80s] and the Stock Exchange are both located on it. This interesting duality, a semi-dark past and a seemingly bright present, is one of the main reasons IN NARRATIVE chose this street as the focus of its first workshop in Kuwait
