About the Workshop
This hands-on youth workshop invites 15 participants to explore the exciting world of board game design through the lens of Mathaf’s architecture, themes, and exhibitions.
Over the course of ten interactive sessions, participants will learn how to take a creative idea and turn it into a fully developed board game—complete with storyline, mechanics, design, packaging, and presentation. The workshop will strike a balance between theory and practical application, offering a well-rounded creative experience for beginners with big ideas.
By the end of the course, participants will produce original board game prototypes rooted in cultural expression, design thinking, and storytelling.

We are looking for motivated and creative individuals who are:

• Aged 14 to 17.
• Curious about game design, storytelling, or visual art.
