Warehouse421 is a home-grown arts and design centre, dedicated to nurture and showcase artistic production through the region, working in collaboration with local, regional, and international entities.
Converted from two former industrial warehouses, Warehouse421 showcases the works of local, regional and international artists, designers and performers throughout the year, while providing a rare glimpse into the processes and techniques behind their creations. Through its programme featuring learning initiatives, research and commissions, it aims to enhance the UAE’s creative ecosystem.
Since its temporary closure due to the Covid-19 outbreak, Warehouse421 has started renovation works at the space to include three new studios, a revamp of the Warehouse421 shop, and a library nook.
