The Minister of Culture, Nevine El-Kilani, has inaugurated the second edition of the Opera Book Fair, which will be available until July 19.
The fair comes as a continuation of the Cairo International Book Fair‘s tagline for its 54th edition; “Together, We read, We create, We think,” said the head of the General Egyptian Book Organisation (GEBO), Haitham Al-Hajj Ali.
The Ministry also added that the Culture and Art for All initiative would continue its efforts to enhance knowledge among citizens by organising a series of local book fairs across multiple governorates in the near future, the El-Kilani said.
The books at the fair will be available at reduced prices, with additional discounts for students, and there will be 27 private publishing houses, as well as various sectors of the Ministry of Culture, participating.
