The event is finished.

Ghazi Al-Theiba is a Jordanian poet born in Jerusalem. He earned a diploma in accounting from the Jordanian Community College in Amman but works as a news editor and poet. His first poems were published initially the Jordanian publication Sawt Al-Shaab before expanding to other Arab newspapers and magazines, most notably the Jordanian newspapers Ad-Dustour and Al-Rai.

When his soul left his body and this world, he left a house for poetry, a place for his things, and walls where the poetry he loved would remain. The Bahraini poet Ibrahim Al Arrayed, and all those who (followed) him in his literary journey and translated works, were retained by the Sheikh Ebrahim bin Mohammed Al Khalifa Centre for Culture and Research in his city which he belonged, Manama. For it was the house of fame, as the first among the homes of cultural centers outside the city of Muharraq.
