1993: Amman
In 1993, in Amman, Jordan, we opened a small shop, "Galerie D’Art Mariam for Paintings and Frames," where we sold paintings and frames, building a reputation for honesty, reliability, and professionalism under the leadership of Fadi, becoming one of the country’s leading galleries offering personalized service to our individual and commercial clients, including the Jordanian Royal family.
The Mariam Center
Thanks to Heyam’s initiative, the "Mariam Center for Arts and Crafts" was born in Jordan, becoming the go-to place in Jordan for arts and crafts training for thousands of students of all ages in just 8 years. The Mariam Center quickly began collaborating with non-governmental organizations for Syrian and Iraqi refugees in Jordan, providing them with a means of expression and training to develop their art and craft skills under extremely challenging conditions.
We were also later inspired to offer custom courses for children with special needs and cancer patients as therapy.
2016: Canada
In 2016, Fadi (Syrian) and Heyam (Jordanian) decided to immigrate to Canada after facing visa difficulties and restrictions in Jordan for their three Syrian children, aiming for a better future.
