some of the fierce competitors |
Join Craft Land on Saturday 26th November from 12 noon to 6pm at Jumeirah Town Centre to help craft a giant U.A.E flag to celebrate the Emirates’ 40th birthday! Everyone is welcome, participants do not need crafting experience – help and materials will be on hand. Participants can craft as many 4 x 4 inch squares as they can – in either green, red, black or white…which will be joined together to build the UAE flag.
And if participants can’t make it on the 26th, they can bring their 4 x 4 inch crafted square to Craft Land during the two weeks from 19th November to 2nd December, where the ever growing flag will be displayed with pride.
