Kafein's 5th exhibition, entitled "The Happy Family," is about the life of the artist, Carl Dienelt, in Cairo. Carl prefers to exhibit in Cafes as apposed to galleries as they offer more diversity in terms of the audience.

This exhibition will run from Sunday October 26 through the beginning of December. Join us on Sunday after 7pm for the opening festivities and to meet the artist.
