can i come with my family?

Mohammed

Probably not unless you live on the compound.  The only men that I have seen other than that are the vendors.

Mohammed El-seloky

Yes CAF,

That is the problem. But, will I try to be one of them (Vendors)
LOL

hey
was wondering if you guys still do this ?

Kingdom coffee morning is a monthly bazarre with the exception of July and August (as it is in ressess then), they occur the first Monday of every month.  It is the largest bazarre of it's kind in Riyadh bearing in mind it is a compound based event held on a monthly basis.  Women can register to attend directly with the compound (check out their details on the internet). Women come from all over Riyadh to buy at the bazarre, meet up with friends for coffee, network or they sell at the event.  So, a range of things (and super choices to be had) for the many.  It is focused on woman and is predominately an expat market with a broad range of nationalities present.  The Women's Skills Bureau (www.wsb-ksa.com) has a stand there as their market for job creation, volunteering, skills training/development/coaching and networking - is right there at the event.  Also, Saudi Arts & Crafts (check out their facebook page) is there (just to give you a very small flavour) as well as what must be well over a hundred stands with all sorts of crafts, clothes, furniture, art, books, food, jewellery etc for sale.  Other compounds have monthly coffee mornings, but Kingdom is the largest.  Next one is September (first Monday) so check it out and register in time.
