Please note that due to unforeseen circumstances, Mark-It, that was meant to take place this weekend has been post-poned. We will keep you updated on the dates of the next one.
Apologies for any inconvenience caused.
Thanks,
The Shelter Team
Maybe you are a serious art collector. Perhaps you’re simply interested in finding an inexpensive way to furnish a new home. Or maybe you’re looking for a new piece of jewellery for yourself. Weekend markets are a great way to keep your wallets in check and yet buy the most beautiful products that would be a neighbours envy and the owners pride.
After its sell-out debut in May, The “Mark-It” is scheduled once again for Friday, July 9th and Saturday, July 10th 2010 and will include vendors with exotic wares, collectibles, crafts, and merchandise of all kinds. The Mark-It boasts of an atmosphere that is friendly and chilled out. Once tired of shopping, simply relax with a foot massage or unwind with some great beverages and snacks to the tune of a funky DJ. The organisers have thought of it all, children are entertained with fun animated feature films in cinema style while parents are busy trying on the wares. The event runs from 5pm till 10pm on Friday and 11am till 10pm on Saturday. Read more »

Shelter has successfully launched in May 2010 a platform to promote language exchange between Dubai’s residents called “Speak Dating”. As the word tells, this is about matching people that have common interests in teaching/learning a language and a perfect complement to traditional language classes. Read more »
