The concept for Al-Hangar is inspired by its name; a hangar is a large, makeshift structure, with extensive space, that is easily erected and can be utilized for a number of functions, whilst remaining flexible and mobile. Thus Al-Hangar represents apop-up independent artist-run space that can be moulded and transformed according to the ever-changing and evolving needs of said artists. The main objective is to eliminate any constraint to an artist’s creativity and to maximize his potential. 

Consequently, to date, Al-Hangar is an initiative that is not commercially driven and is inclusive of all creative disciplines. It is a space that is offered to the artist to interact with and experiment with to his heart’s content, whilst exchanging ideas with and enjoying the support of a community of other artists.

Al-Hangar believes in integrating art into the community and in unrestricted spaces that facilitate artistic discovery.
