Zaki explained, during a television interview, that the idea had been with all the artists for a long time, and that the house would be for soft power in Egypt, and they are the artists.

The opening ceremony will be held today in the presence of Abdullah Al Owais, representing Sheikh Sultan Al Qasimi, ruler of Sharjah, one of the main donors of the house, and a large number of artists.

Zaki stressed that the house, whose fitting out has been fully completed, accommodates 40 people, recalling that artist Ashraf Abdel Ghafour, former head of the Actors Syndicate, and artist Muhammad Abu Dawoud will be honored during the ceremony, concluding that the retirement home is a step between the dreams and aspirations of the Actors Syndicate.
