Aligned with ‘alternative ways of being’ and mindfulness, Slow Art Walks invite visitors to take the time to slow down and reflect, not to rush to unpack or understand. For three nights this Ramadan, we will be joined by critical voices from the arts—both emerging and established—to welcome you to spend an evening with artworks in the Avenue.

Amad Mian specialises in digital strategy and e-commerce and has founded a number of cultural businesses in Dubai. Most prominently, he co-founded Dastaangoi and Dastaangoi Gallery, alongside his wife Waleeya, which creates a platform that challenges the traditional narrative of South Asia through art, culture and people. As well as this he also works with startups on their marketing endeavours; he is a partner at Karavan, a venture fund focused on scaling startups; and he is the founder of Project Code, a company that cultivates digital literacy in the Gulf. In addition, he also hosts The Amad Show, a top rated podcast where he interviews creative spirits from around the world.
