The Doha Photography Festival, encourages residents of Qatar to express their creativity across various themes and age groups.
The Ministry of Culture announced the launch of the Doha Photography Award, as part of the inaugural edition of the Doha Photography Festival.
Jassim Ahmed Al Buainain, Director of the Qatar Photography Center, said that the award is primed at developing Qatari youth talent and nurturing their photographic skills.
“This award embodies the Ministry’s vision of fostering a vibrant artistic and cultural environment, encouraging engagement within the photography community, and supporting photographers across age groups,” he said.
Al Buainain went on to say that the award’s goals go beyond supporting talent and creators, by contributing directly to tourism as it promotes Qatar’s landmarks and natural beauty.
