The Aries Association organized a food and local produce exhibition, as well as art and craftwork, in Hamra Street today, Sunday, under the title "Beirut Pulse Festival." Fatine Shhada, president of the Aries Association, told "Wardna" that after the Beirut port explosion and the coronavirus pandemic, the Beirut Pulse Festival was launched in 2021 to serve as the heartbeat and impetus for the revival of Beirut from the rubble.
Shhada emphasized that the main goal of this festival is to "stimulate the economy and bring Lebanon back to life and hope, as well as to secure job opportunities for as many artisans and farmers as possible." The exhibition started at 9 AM today, featuring several artisans, farmers, and small business owners promoting their products, including clothing, paintings, crafts, and Lebanese food.
The Aries Association focuses on training unemployed women and supporting Lebanese women by efficiently and effectively employing resources and distinguished services to alleviate the economic and social impact on them and their families.
