Focal Point, Sharjah’s annual art book fair, brings together a wide range of printed materials and publications from artists’ presses, bookmakers, self-publishers and non-commercial cultural producers who expand and experiment with the medium of publishing.

For its eighth edition, the fair has invited selected community leaders, artists, graphic designers, print studios and independent practitioners to present publications from their respective cultural ecosystems. Other dedicated sections will highlight contributions from UAE-based artists, as well as titles recommended by the Foundation.

Running from 12 to 14 December 2025 at Bait Obaid Al Shamsi, Focal Point 2025 will complement its offerings with specialty workshops focused on publishing and alternative printing techniques.
