Some fun activities were prepared for them that required them to listen to a musical clip from different songs, including those performed by the Miami band itself, and they had to identify the song’s name as quickly as possible. It was a fun way to spend some enjoyable time at Kuwait Times and Kuwait News. The artistes learned about the different departments of Kuwait Times.

They had a glimpse into the nature of work in the field of journalism and media and what goes on behind the scenes in delivering news, whether through printed newspapers or digital media.
