From November the 7th to the 25th, Dubai witnessed the first edition of L’École Van Cleef & Arpels. One thousand students participated in the 19 workshops for children and adults, and the nomadic school added to its exciting schedule six exhibitions, six evening conversations and three outdoor cinema screenings. Having raised AED 300,000 for Dubai Cares, it was definitely its largest edition to date.

100% of the funds raised from the 14 adult classes were donated to the organization. It was the perfect way to participate in the “The Year of Giving”.

Commenting on the first Middle East campus for L’ÉCOLE Van Cleef & Arpels, Marie Vallanet-Delhom, president of L’ÉCOLE Van Cleef & Arpels said, “It was an honor and pleasure to partner with Dubai Cares on such a successful fundraising campaign. The engagement we had with the school in Dubai over the past three weeks has been phenomenal. We had 1,000 students participate in our workshops, both adults and children from all over the Emirates and the region, with many asking us about our next visit! I would have to say that our first campus in the Middle East has been a great success, and we look forward to our return to the region.”
