An exciting international event is coming to Egypt! Home of Metal is a British photo exhibition celebrating heavy metal fans around the world, especially Black Sabbath fans. After photo shoots during Black Sabbath's final UK tour, and then in Spain, Brazil, Indonesia and other places, Home of Metal will be staging its next shoot in Cairo on Friday October 27.
Heavy metal fans - specifically those of Black Sabbath - are invited to come along to the shoot bringing with them any T-shirts, memorabilia, tickets or records that they own, to display as they have their individual photos taken. They can also contribute their personal stories that would be published alongside their photos. The collection of photos and stories will be published both online on the Home of Metal website and in an exhibition planned to take place in 2018 in Birmingham, where the heavy metal genre was born with Black Sabbath, hence the name "Home of Metal." The exhibition will then tour internationally.
The idea of the exhibition, which is supported by the Arts Council in the UK, is to celebrate the diversity of Black Sabbath and heavy metal fans around the world. On Friday October 27 starting at Naj Pictures, Nasr City all heavy metal fans are welcome to come along and have their photo taken and be part of this unique international project - location available on event page tagged below. Spread the word and see you on October 27!
