Art is not only a peace time human activity. If one of the numerous purposes it serves is healing the invisible wounds of the war, then there is a reason and need for it in Yemen, which has been grappling with a bloodyinsurgency by the Saleh-Houthi rebel militias.

Prime Minister Ahmed bin-Daghr directed the government on Thursday to provide JamilGhanem Institute of Finance Arts in Aden with an annual operational expenditure to help it reconstruct war-damaged facilities including the theatre stage and gallery, and set food on the development track.

He issued the directives during a meeting with Minister of Culture Marwan Dammaj and senior Culture figures in Aden. They also discussed means of livening up cultural and art activities in the government retaken provinces back again.
