Jan 19, 2006, 16:17 GMT
Britain's Prince Charles is to visit South Yorkshire next week to tour an exhibition of Islamic works of art.
The Prince of Wales will visit the exhibition, named, 'Palace and Mosque: Islamic Treasures of the Middle East', at the Millennium Galleries in Sheffield.
It marks the launch of The Festival of Muslim Cultures, which takes place throughout 2006 and into the summer of 2007. As patron of the festival - a national celebration of the cultural and artistic expressions of Islamic people - the prince is keen to be at the exhibition. During his visit to the city, the prince will meet school and community groups who have been working with Sheffield Galleries and Museums Trust. He will also watch a performance by a group of Muslim women and girls, which has been developed as part of the Sheffield Children's Festival.Copyright 2006 BANG Media International
