ZOBRA the art village

ZOBRA the art village Founded in 2020, ZOBRA began with a bold vision: to unite artists from around the world through creativity, dialogue, and cultural exchange.

Zobra is a village, an inspiration, and a source of creativity after all. It is situated nearby the University of Chittagong. It is a clean and orderly village with an opportunity of beautiful sightseeing. Due to the Department of Fine Arts of the university, many well-known and famous painters and sculptor's like Rashid Chowdhury (Painter and specialist on Trapestry), Murtaza Bashir (Painter), Sy

ed Abdullah Khalid (Famous Sculptor of 'Oporajeyo Bangla), Mansur Ul Karim (Painter), Abul Mansur( Famous Artist and art critic), Ansar Ali (Print Making) Shafiqul Islam (Painter) Dhali Al Mamun ( Painter), Saiful Kabir Ranju (Painter) and many more took the opportunity to taste the pleasant and amusing experience of creativity, art, and culture in this village.

Our page is named by this village for its historical significance of art, culture, and economy. We believe it will become a Global Art Village – a place for all the artists and creative fellows all around the world. Welcome to our Art Village.

Although ZOBRA was officially launched in 2020, it had been actively involved in various initiatives long before that. As part of this journey, in 2018, ZOBRA was invited to conduct a children’s workshop at Jigme Losel School in Thimphu, Bhutan.

The day was truly vibrant and filled with joy. The children of Bhutan are incredibly disciplined, talented, and bright. They wholeheartedly live by a beautiful philosophy — “Let nature be your teacher.” This belief is deeply reflected throughout Bhutan, where nature is nurtured and cherished like a mother.

Long live Bhutan💚
