A group of Muscat University students, academic staff and administrators visited the Royal Opera House of Muscat, The Sultanate of Oman. The trip was for a culture and knowledge learning experience for the students of one of the Sultanate’s most important cultural sites. The Royal Opera House Head of Education and Outreach gave a talk on the role the Opera House plays to exchange culture, creativity and art. Those attending were introduced to the events and activities hosted by the Royal Opera House and given a tour of the building emphasizing the beauty of the architecture and design which was inspired by traditional Islamic, Omani heritage. The students and staff were shown a wonderful display of historical, musical instruments and costumes. This trip was organized as part of Muscat University’s goal to build synergies with the local community and inculcate its students with an understanding of the role culture and creativity play in society”.
