Qatar and the United States Announce the 2021 Year of Culture 

On Monday, September 14th, 2020, as part of the annual US-Qatar Strategic Dialogue, representatives from the two nations signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) marking 2021 as the “U.S.-Qatar Year of Culture” between the United States and Qatar. The Qatar America Institute for Culture (QAIC) is thrilled for this partnership, which will further the cultural connections, collaborations, and exchanges between the United States and Qatar.  

ConocoPhillips Joins QAIC As Its Newest Sponsor 

The Qatar America Institute for Culture (QAIC) is thrilled to announce the signing of a sponsorship agreement with ConocoPhillips, an American multinational energy corporation with operations in Doha, Qatar, and one of the world’s largest independent exploration and production (E&P) companies. This sponsorship agreement stems from ConocoPhillips’ support for QAIC’s mission and values, which place culture, education, and the community at the heart of its programs. The new partnership between QAIC and ConocoPhillips will allow for more cultural exchanges, art exhibitions, and scholarly opportunities between Qatar and the United States.
