The Lonely Planet Guide Book says - The artisans of the Wissa Wassef Art Centre, who work in open studios, are known for their distinctive tapestries depicting rural scenes. Crude imitations are standard in souvenir shops; the ones for sale and on display in the museum here are in a completely different class, like paintings in wool. There’s pottery and batik fabric, done to equally good effect. The place has the feeling of a sanctuary – quiet and refreshingly green, especially after a dusty Pyramids visit. The centre is housed in a beautiful mudbrick complex, the work of its founder, architect Ramses Wissa Wassef. It won an Aga Khan prize for its refined traditional style.

Ramses Wissa Wassef was an Egyptian architect and professor of art and architecture at the College of Fine Arts in Cairo and the founder of the Ramses Wissa Wassef Art Centre. Here, one can explore the wonders of Egyptian tapestry and the entire centre is dedicated to releasing the innate creativity of young Egyptian villagers. In the centre, two generations of weavers have developed, many of whom are now grandparents, as they continue to pass on the traditional art of weaving and keep this remarkable culture alive.
