The Strides 4 Good Gala Dinner, held in partnership with Gulf for Good, at the Lana was successful and memorable evening. The event marked the culmination of an extraordinary charitable initiative led by James Elliott-Square (Commercial Director, Sovereign PPG Dubai) and Paris Norriss (TV presenter, motivational speaker, adventurer and conservationist), to complete seven marathons across seven continents in seven consecutive days.
Internationally acclaimed artist, Sacha Jafri, created a live painting throughout the entire event. Guests witnessed a rare and mesmerising moment as he entered a deep theta-state trance to create the painting. The painting was then auctioned live with a hammer price of 160,000 USD!
