 Don’t miss this exclusive talk at the Aga Khan Museum with Dr. Huda Smitshuijzen AbiFarès, guest curator of *Inner Structures – Outer Rhythms* and Founding Director of the Khatt Foundation.

Arabic and Persian scripts have long been powerful tools of expression and connection — from calligraphy and poetry to contemporary type design. In this special talk, Huda will share her perspective as a designer, educator, and cultural advocate, revealing how design is not just visual but cultural, historical, and deeply human.
