Von außen schön, aber leider unerwartet geschlossen.

Amazing experience, one of the best we had in Kuwait as a family. Meeting the artists / owners and having them explain the history of the house and the story of their favorite pieces is a definite plus. Pre-booking is required. Arrive on-time as several groups join the same tour. The place is a fusion of a home and an art gallery. The work of Mr. Khalifah was very interesting but the highlight of the visit was the environment created by Ms. Lidya in every room. Kids above the age of 10 should be able to enjoy this visit as well. You walk out with a big smile and a goodies bag to snack on. They have a lovely little shop offering souvenirs of the place, we got a fridge magnet that will join our collection to remind us of Kuwait. Highly recommended.

It was a great experience! Art, science and spiritual interests are all intervening in this personal guided tour through the history of this private museum. I would recommend to everyone!

Great place! Lots of history here. Visited here while on vacation and it was extraordinary. If you're an artist or just admire art, highly recommend stopping by. Thank you for such a great experience.

It is an amazing place!
The artist, Lidia, gave me a private tour of the house, and I had an amzing time with her. She is an extremely intelligent and passionate lady. Cannot believe that she is 85 years old, and still so full of life!
The mirror works are beautiful and the paintings from her late husband, Khalifa Qattan, (displayed upstairs) are great. You rarely see such great paintings in Muslim countries.

Lidia spent almost 3 hours with me, and I felt so privileged. Such an honor to get to know a great artist.
Also, Lidia and her daughter showed me such a warm hospitality. Prepared cold drinks for a humid day, small snack for the road, and lovely souvenirs. Thank you so much!

Definitely worth visiting in Kuwait!!
They have a bit strick Covid regulations, but it was understandable, cause the artist still lives in that place. (It was private residence, and the artist is getting old. Her health should be taken care of.)

Should be appreciated by many people.

The time and effort put into this project is astounding! It's definitely worth your time to visit. This was such a fun tour! The artist, Lidia Qattan [also our guide], is an amazing dynamo of a woman! The Galaxy room was definitely my favorite part. When the lights went out it was like floating in space!
