As the brand's global signatory treat offered to the guests for a refreshing transition, the Westin Dhaka organised a month long ornament making exhibition by artist Amman Rashid.

The exhibition was inaugurated at Level-1 of the Lobby of the Westin Dhaka on July 1 where singers Mehreen and Shahed, Director of Communications of the Westin Dhaka Mahbubur Rahman, among others were present on the occasion. Cool Exposure managed the event. Westin has decided to initiate the programme to uphold the indigenous trend of Bangladeshi ornament and Aadi's Amman Rashid was the kingpin of the event.

Guests at the hotel through out July are welcome to see Aadi's exclusive artworks by Amman where each item is a specimen one from Sunday to Thursday between 6:00pm to 8:00pm. Apart from enjoying the artist live work, guests could be able to pursue the artist to give him any particular order of the ornament. The ornaments will be put on display for sale at a stall that would remain open only for that time period.

Amman's artworks are unique in the sense that each item is different from others. The ornament means for the delight of all age brackets for daily attiring, made of different types of thread, dry seed, dry fruits, shells, snails, mud or left-over natural materials.

Considered as a Westin ritual, all unwinds programmes include interactive activity on food or beverage demonstration, cultural, educational or game show.

Usually the activity is free of charge to the guests. Non-border guests are also welcome to the event.

The exhibition will end on July 31.
