Our work with Qatar Museums
Led by its chairperson, Her Excellency Sheikha al-Mayassa bint Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani, Qatar Museums is making Qatar a vibrant centre for the arts, culture and education in the Middle East and beyond.
Qatar Museums oversees a growing roster of institutions including the National Museum of Qatar, the Museum of Islamic Art, Mathaf: Arab Museum of Modern Art and the 3-2-1 Qatar Olympic and Sports Museum. It also nurtures and supports the Qatari cultural infrastructure through projects including the Fire Station: Artist in Residence programme, M7 creative hub for innovation, fashion and design, and Liwan Design Studios and Labs.
As part of Cultureshock’s ongoing partnership with Qatar Museums and the office of Sheikha al-Mayassa, since 2025 we have developed books, apps, websites, podcasts and cultural guides to showcase the extraordinary museums, exhibitions and talent that have made Doha a new capital of the international art world.
