This can be considered an investment in the future.” Artist Mohamed Kamal said: "The Garden of Creativity is a successive series of visual arts workshops for the Egyptian child, in which I rely on brainstorming prior to the creative act in order to feed him with various cognitive tributaries before engaging in the artistic state with different media. Therefore, the Visual Arts Sector was the most prominent and most specialized entity in this visual field due to its capabilities that help complete the project within the corridors of society through the successive age stages of the Egyptian child, who is the cornerstone of the entire popular architecture."
