Visitors Enjoyed Traditional Poetry at Qatar National Library’s Event

Qatar National Library hosted a traditional Qatari poetry reading, featuring renowned poets Mohamad Yasin, Zainab Almahmood, Nasser Al-Wobair and Hamad Al-Braidi, who recited verses in two common traditions, Faseeh and Nabaţi.

The event was part of the Library’s month-long Qatar National Day celebrations, and was organized to provide an opportunity for visitors to learn more about Qatari culture and values, as expressed through traditional local poetry.

The recital panel was moderated by the creative presenter Saoud Al-Maadeed.
