Celebrating every story, connecting our community, inspiring change.
Since 2020, Qesati has been a space where everyone is welcomed, heard, and included. We host talks, workshops, and community events that get people growing, connecting, and engaging.
Can you imagine a world without storytelling? Neither can we! That’s why we bring people together to share experiences, spark empathy, and inspire positive change.
In a world that can feel a little disconnected, we’re here to show just how powerful stories – and community – can be. Through our work, we create spaces where people feel connected, included, and inspired to make a real impact.
We imagine a world where storytelling – of all kinds – gives everyone a voice, helping us share knowledge, connect with each other, and build a more inclusive and empathetic society.
We’re on a mission to create a space where storytelling comes alive – sparking change, nurturing understanding, and bringing people together in meaningful ways.

Join us for a unique storytelling and workshop experience in collaboration with Studio Khemiae, as we explore “Blueprints of Memories.”
Led by Huda Almughni — documentary photographer and founder of Studio Khemiae, whose work has been exhibited in Kuwait and abroad — this session invites you to discover the 19th-century art of cyanotype printing, known for its deep blue hues.
You’ll learn how to turn your own digital negatives into expressive prints, bringing to life the moments that were captured; the ones that truly mattered.
Let’s create, reflect, and share the stories that linger within every shade of blue.
We’d love to hear from you! Got questions, ideas, or just want to say hi? Reach out and let’s connect:
