In 2011, an old house built in the 1930s by Syrian Abdol Majeed Ajami was restored to house the headquarters of The Khalid Shoman Foundation. Artworks from The Khalid Shoman Collection are usually on permanent display here, and working spaces are offered for researchers studying Arab art. In keeping with the mission to be a research hub on the study of Arab art, a yearly doctoral dissertation fellowship for the study of modern and contemporary Arab art was instated.
