The Gurmani Centre hosted the Calligraphy Exhibition "یک عمر در خدمتِ قلم" (A Life in the Service of the Pen), on Friday, July 26, 2024, curated by Taimoor Khan Mumtaz (a senior architect and founding director of the Hast-o-Neest Institute of Traditional Studies & Arts in Lahore). This is the first solo show of Ustad Sher Zaman, the in-house calligrapher of the Gurmani Centre, and will continue to be on display in the Academic Block corridors until the end of August. It showcases a diverse range of traditional compositions, executed with great refinement and a keen sense of proportion and design featuring Quranic verses as well as Urdu, Persian, Punjabi, and Pashto poetry and sayings in nasta’liq, thuluth, and naskh.
