About us

May the word lead our way

In 2015, Dar Melad began as a boutique publishing house devoted to enriching knowledge through cultural activities and literary events, running volunteer workshops dedicated to creative writing, before growing into a full-fledged publishing house specializing in publishing the output of the literary workshops it holds. Since then, the house has been on a continuous quest for creative works that elevate Arabic literature. In mid-2017, the house opened its first literary salon in Riyadh, a modern platform for holding writing workshops and evenings tied to the production of creative works, thereby fulfilling Melad's enduring promise: to become a true meeting point for all cultured minds and makers of creativity.

We have held many cultural evenings, writing workshops, and book launch sessions

We have worked with more than 70 cultural institutions around the world
