Led by fashion consultant Azza Souebni, the imaginative art workshop catered to fashion enthusiasts keen on exploring the realm of surrealist arts and expressing their creativity through unique designs. Participants were provided with various materials, including prints of human forms, colored cupcake liners, foam shapes, pencils, scissors, and glue, to create their own dress cards inspired by surrealist style.

Using these materials, the girls folded or spread out cupcake liners to resemble skirts or dresses, adorned with flowers, hearts, and stars to enhance their appeal. Colored foam pieces were utilized to fashion footwear or hats for the human figures, while additional details such as eyes, mouths, and hair were drawn to add feminine touches.
The resulting creations were diverse and captivating, each reflecting the individual creativity of its maker. SCRF 2024, themed “Once Upon a Hero,” will run until May 12, offering an action-packed festival experience for young readers, artists, and families. The event showcases millions of books, including the latest releases in children’s and Young Adult literature from around the world.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
