KABUL

Türkiye’s Yunus Emre Institute is reviving the thuluth calligraphy art, which is on the verge of disappearing in Afghanistan.

The institute started thuluth calligraphy courses in its headquarters on the campus of Kabul University to transfer the waning art to the next generation.

Currently, nearly 20 students from high school and university and from different professions are attending the course, and each of them practice for a long time to reinforce what they have learned after classes.

The courses which started in the first week of July will continue until December and attendance is free of charge.
