Celebrating the 4th Finalist of the Dubel Prize 2025: Sinatra Zantout

This past April, The Other House Private Members Club in South Kensington hosted an unforgettable evening in celebration of Sinatra Zantout, the fourth finalist of the Dubel Prize 2025.

Over 200 guests gathered to honor Zantout’s powerful work and hear from voices across the creative and charitable sectors. The event was not only a showcase of artistic excellence but also a celebration of resilience, community, and storytelling.

An Evening of Insight and Inspiration

Guests were welcomed into the stylish, intimate atmosphere of The Other House and treated to a series of engaging speeches. Naomi Heaton, founder of The Other House, opened the evening by reflecting on the importance of supporting emerging voices in the arts. Sally Orlopp, Director at our charity partner Centrepoint, followed with a heartfelt message about the ongoing mission to support young people facing homelessness.

The highlight of the evening came when Sinatra Zantout took the stage to share her artistic journey. A Lebanese-Nigerian painter and photographer based in London, Zantout’s work explores the hidden stories of women of color in lower-income societies. Her art shines a light on themes of identity, resilience, motherhood, and the quiet power of survival — deeply influenced by her own upbringing between Lebanon and Nigeria.

 

A Night to Remember

Following the speeches, the event transformed into a lively social evening with cocktails, a DJ set, and plenty of meaningful conversation. Guests enjoyed the beautifully curated surroundings of The Other House while connecting with fellow artists, creatives, and supporters of the Dubel Prize.

We were honoured to have Damian Alexander Dubel, founder of the Dubel Prize, in attendance — showing his continued support for boundary-pushing, socially engaged art.
