Darb 1718

About

Darb 1718 is a contemporary art and culture center in Old Cairo's Fustat district, offering a multidisciplinary residency program for artists, writers, researchers, visual artists, and curators to produce, practice, and present projects in an immersive cultural setting. Residents receive private rooftop accommodation amid historic sites and the Fustat ceramic village, with access to exhibition spaces, workshops, and performance venues, though it is a paid residency where artists cover costs. The program emphasizes cross-cultural exchange and community engagement in authentic Cairo.
