You may have heard of "farm to table" but have you ever heard of "landscape to table"?

Coined by artist and chef Moza AlMatrooshi, she talks to us about how she came up with the concept that brings into focus the stories of the land and the ingredients at the forefront, her opinion on the local food scene, and what it means to be an "Emirati chef."

Sara Al Mheiri is back on Eyes On as a co-curator of Vantage Point 13.

She gives us a behind the scenes look into the process of picking the photographs, working with the artists and her opinions on what differentiates "documentary photography" from every day photography.

Sharjah's annual photography exhibition is back for its thirteenth edition.

Osemudiamen Ekore, Curatorial Assistant at Sharjah Art Foundation and co-curator of the exhibition, tells us about the intricacies and work behind Vantage Point 13, talking design decisions, the newly inaugurated Photography Gallery, and picking the six artists on display.

In centralizing the body, Laila Majid and Inaam Zafar picture the mundane and everyday overlooked aspects of life, surroundings and emotions through their joint exhibition "Body Quotidian."

On today's episode of Eyes On, we celebrate a decade of dates, heritage, and homegrown pride. The Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SCCI) has finalised preparations for the 10th edition of the Al Dhaid Date Festival, running from 23rd to 26th July at Expo Al Dhaid, with extensive participation from palm farmers and leading date producers across the UAE.

Over ten years, the festival has grown into one of Sharjah's most important economic, heritage, and agricultural events — promoting best farming practices, supporting farmers in improving crop quality, and advancing the emirate's broader goals of food security and sustainable agricultural growth. This year's edition brings an expanded programme of competitions with valuable prizes, from the "Ratb Beauty" Contest across the Khneizi, Khalas, and Shishi varieties to elite Dhaid date categories, plus new contests for children and a "Most Beautiful Home-grown Dates" competition for women, alongside red fig and local lemon categories. Complementing the contests is a full schedule of cultural and heritage activities, advisory workshops, and expert-led seminars on modern farming and palm tree care.

We hear from Mohammad Ahmed Amin Al Awadi, Director-General of SCCI, on how reaching the 10th edition marks a strategic milestone, how the festival has become a trusted platform for farmers and researchers, and how enhanced judging standards and broader participation are strengthening Al Dhaid's position as an integrated economic and heritage destination.

Tune in as we explore ten years of the Al Dhaid Date Festival — with competitions running daily from 7:00 AM to 2:00 PM and winners honoured after Maghrib prayer.

On today's episode of Eyes On, we put the spotlight on a major boost to safety and security across the emirate. Sharjah Police has announced the addition of 130 new security vehicles to its operational fleet — part of a strategic approach to strengthening field presence, enhancing personnel readiness, and ensuring rapid response to reports and security operations.

The new vehicles come equipped with a comprehensive range of advanced technical features, including smart communication systems, advanced field equipment, and the highest standards of safety and operational efficiency. Together, they give officers enhanced operational capabilities to carry out their duties professionally under all circumstances, while keeping pace with evolving security challenges and future requirements.

We hear from Major General Dr Ali Bu Al Zoud, Director General of the General Department of Resources and Support Services, on how this fleet upgrade reflects Sharjah Police's proactive investment in advanced technologies and modern equipment, its commitment to strategic partnerships with the private sector, and its goal of keeping officers close to the community — active partners in protecting lives and property while reinforcing Sharjah's position as a global model in security and community service.

Tune in as we explore how these 130 new vehicles will strengthen policing across Sharjah's neighbourhoods.

On today's episode of Eyes On, we shift into gear with a major milestone in Sharjah's smart mobility journey. Sharjah Taxi has officially recorded 1 million trips through the Yango app since launching its digital booking service in February 2025 — a clear sign of growing demand for smart transport and rising customer confidence in the company's digital services.

These features help improve trip allocation, sharpen response times, and raise overall service standards — all in line with the Government's digital transformation agenda.
