This Calendar was designed last September as part of the giveaways that were given to the guests who came to "Athar Lina" 10th anniversary celebration. The calendar consists of a series of collages that either refer to one of the projects that al Athar Lina curated during the last 10 years or to some scenes from the al-Khalifa context that reflect the tangible and intangible heritage and rituals of the surrounding area. 
Special thanks go to my dear colleague and talented friend Nada Hany for photographing all those photographs for the calendar :) 

About Athar Lina: Athar Lina (www.atharlina.com) is a participatory conservation initiative that aims to establish modalities of citizen participation in heritage conservation based on an understanding of the monument as a resource not a burden. Athar Lina (The monument is ours) believes that only when cultural heritage is beneficial to the community will the community become an active partner in its conservation. It sees the conservation decision-making process as an inclusive participatory process between stakeholders and believes that conservation can be a vehicle for development. Athar Lina is run by the Built Environment Collective|Megawra, a twin organisation including an NGO and an architecture firm (www.megawra.com)
