The productive families' fair showcases domestic creativity and provides an opportunity to showcase handmade Bahraini crafts and to develop their potentials and boost family productivity. Minister Dr. Fatima Al-Beloushi urged all Bahraini families and concerned sides to view the experience of Bahraini families which reflect both their creativity and perfection during the fair which continues for two days at the Gulf Hotel.
