In short

Scheherazade, the Never-ending Collection of CAM uses the storytelling world of One Thousand and One Nights to explore the museum’s collection. The stories unfold through artworks in the galleries, rather than a staged performance of the tales. Give this Gulbenkian art visit its own place in the afternoon.

Before you go

The organiser lists this exhibition through 30 August 2027, closed Tuesdays. Use the CAM collection exhibition page for visiting details and admission. Related guided visits are separate programmes.
