Running until November 30, the fair aims to inspire a passion for reading among visitors of all ages through a vibrant lineup of literary and cultural activities.

This year’s edition gathers a wide range of publishers and libraries from across the region, offering diverse Arabic and English titles spanning literature, science, and culture.

The Wahaj Association is also taking part by coordinating creative workshops and reading sessions designed for people of determination, ensuring inclusivity and equal participation in cultural experiences that celebrate imagination and learning.

Duaij Al Romaihi, Chief Commercial Officer at Seef Properties, expressed pride in hosting the event for the second consecutive year, noting that it supports the company’s goal of turning Seef Mall into a cultural meeting point. “Safahat reflects our belief in the value of culture and its role in shaping an informed and creative society. Through initiatives like this, we aim to foster spaces where learning, dialogue, and creativity thrive,” he said.

He added that the exhibition not only promotes reading but also serves as a platform for local and regional authors to engage directly with their audiences.
