The Pakistan Afghanistan Joint Committee (PAJC) visited Karachi Arts Council (KAC) on January 10, 2017 on the sidelines of Third PAJC workshop in Karachi. They met with the President KAC, Mr. Ahmed Shah.
The President said that the primary goal of KAC is to promote arts and culture, but arts and culture are both linked with the politics and foreign relations. Fostering people to people contacts is the best method to bring countries together. We are not here to discuss what Pakistan or Afghanistan did wrong, let’s discuss what we can do together to bring peace. Art is a very strong form of binding.
Mr. Ahmed Shah also offered to host 3-4 Afghan artists to perform and receive 2-week training at the KAC academy.
