The Authority has been organizing promotional campaigns of Mouj, the much loved mascot of the festival, for Sharjah schools and distributing the special children’s magazine, Mouj, inviting students of all age groups to be part of the SWF fun and games at Al Majaz Park once again.
Meanwhile the Cultural Palace is hosting, from November 20, special entertainment by Mouj and theatre performances celebrating the Water Festival for 24 primary schools in Sharjah. The shows have been attracting immense interest of the student community which eagerly waits for their friend Mouj each year to greet him and take pictures with him.
