Kashmiri Arts and Culture Tutors

Soleh Alnajjari | Srinagar, Kashmir | ElKhattStore Art Studio

Experience: Calligrapher for more than a decade, and owner of Elkhattstore Art Studio in Srinagar. Provides training online and in-person, and have trained more than 550 students across Asia.

Education BA in Mechanical Engineering and MA in Arabic Language and Literature.

"My teaching focuses on traditional Arabic calligraphy, with an emphasis on developing a strong understanding of proportion, letter structure, composition, and the discipline required for the art. In this course, I will be teaching Thuluth (Khat-e-Thuluth), one of the most elegant and visually striking scripts in Arabic calligraphy. Renowned for its beauty and grandeur, Thuluth is also one of the most complex scripts, requiring patience, precision, and consistent practice."

Take arts and cultural lessons from Native Kashmiri Artisans.

At Vale Academy, preserving language also means preserving the art, traditions, and cultural expressions that give our heritage its meaning. We are beginning to bring Kashmiri calligraphy to our platform and hope to expand into music, traditional arts and crafts, and other forms of Kashmiri cultural expression. If you are an artist, musician, calligrapher, craftsperson, or cultural practitioner with a skill or tradition you would like to share, we would love to hear from you. Vale Academy provides a space for cultural practitioners to teach, showcase, and pass their knowledge on to a new generation, helping keep Kashmiri heritage alive and accessible around the world.
