Traditional Islamic Book Art Academy

The Traditional Islamic Book Art Academy (TIBA) was founded by HRH Princess Haya in Jordan in 2009 to generate interest, develop appreciation and promote traditional Islamic Book Art (Holy Qur’an); Islamic Arts and Crafts; and Islamic Architecture. As part of the Centre, the Ijaza Programme will undertake pioneering projects, such as the Musshaf (Holy Book) Project, which entails the production of three Musshafs, all of which will be exceptional masterpieces, produced by world renowned master artists, in the truest tradition of historic Islamic Book Art. The programme will offer training courses on book binding, calligraphy, miniature painting, illumination, traditional pigmentation, music and cosmology art. Princess Haya is the President & Founder of TIBA.  www.tiba.org
