Inspirational Bahrain based musician from Basque Country to perform this month.

Iban Perret, known as “Ibantuta”, is an inspirational Bahrain based musician born in the French Basque Country, where traditional folklore music is deeply rooted in the heritage of its people. He has travelled the world with a particular mission, which lies at the heart of his style: the exploration of foreign cultures through the discovery of their music, melodies and instruments. Today, amongst the variety of string and wind instruments

Tony Waters is a well-known name among animal lovers in Bahrain.

Fondly known as 'The Dogfather, Tony runs The Dogfather Rescue & Rehabilitation Centre in Saar, home to more than 450 rescued dogs, cats, birds, and even a donkey.

Though many of us extend support with food and finance, very sadly it is not enough and Tony is struggling to stay open. The centre is regularly facing closure crises, with it becoming increasingly difficult to give each animal in the Centre the required amount of attention to ensure it's well-being. A recent article in the Gulf Daily News even mentioned that the workers who help Tony at the Centre intended to go on strike as they weren't paid their salaries for more than a month and a half due to lack of funds. If this happens, it will be impossible to feed, water, and care for the animals for even one day.

How can you help?

PAW IT FORWARD

When & Where: Catch Ibantuta’s performance during ‘Musicians Without Borders’ at the Cultural Hall on 14th October and Ayam Zaman music video launch at Maison Jamsheer on 20th October.

An initiative like Tony's Centre is a community project and here's your chance to paw it forward!

Contributions to help cover rent, salaries, electricity, dog and cat food, vet bills and medical supplies are much needed and appreciated.

To donate, visit http://www. tonythedogfather.com/donate/ You can also shop at the Centre's second hand shop where all proceeds go towards the support of the Centre.

homes of wealthy merchants, shops, storehouses and a mosque. Though pearl trade in the Kingdom is not as important around these parts any more, the Pearling Trail is a must-visit on the island because it tells you all about the trade which drove Bahrain’s economy until the discovery of oil.

How to get there?

Just hop on one of the boats leaving the Bahrain National Museum harbour, 9.30am to 4.30pm.

Experience the thrill of Bahrain’s rich maritime tradition.

T

he Kingdom of Bahrain, which literally means ‘two seas’, has a sea-based legacy extending back to 1345 AD. Tucked away near the Western coast of the Arabian Gulf in the Middle East, this exotic island’s history is plush with stories of successful pearl exports, and burgeoning fishing and boat building trades.

The 3.5-kilometre Pearling Trail is Bahrain’s second official UNESCO World Heritage Site after Qal’at Al Bahrain (read Bahrain fort) and consists of 17 buildings around the city of Muharraq, as well as three offshore oyster beds, part of the seashore and the Bu Maher fort. The buildings include the

Scuba Diving Adventures

If you’re an adrenaline junkie and prefer a more hands-on adventure, Bahrain is home to a couple of diving centers. A heads-up – the island’s sea life has been considerably affected, if not damaged, by dredging for land reclamation projects. Still believe the proof of the pudding is in the eating?

Go ahead and take the plunge! If you’re lucky, you might find the odd sea creature that makes your day.
