My favorite things started in 2016 as a small group exhibition, showing the artworks of 3 chosen women artists; featured by Mashrabia as the revelation of the season. In due course, My favorite things became an inclusive annual exhibition promoting and supporting up and coming women artists in Egypt.

Its main aim is to guarantee for women to have a permanent and safe space, for exposure and free expression, maintaining a high artistic quality based on originality and innovative thought. There is no restriction to themes, as we seek authentic artwork that is most true, essentially reflecting subjects of great importance to the artists.

This year's selection features 27 artists: Aya El Hussieny, Aya El Zawawy, Farida Mahdy, Farida Samir, Fatma AboDoma, Fatma Al Zahraa Hassan, Habiba El Gazzar, Hanna Gawad, Hanan Ramadan, Heba Abu El Ella, Heba Tarek, Heidi Ezzat, Lamis Alsayed, Leila Eissa, Mai Aboassi, Malak El Shazly, Maria Bassem, Mariam Essam, Miray Ishak, Nada El Ramly, Nadine Abdelkhalek, Nadine El Kholi, Nouran Zayed, Radwa Yasser, Reem El Hefnawy, Rehab Ayman, Sayeda Misa Sourour, most of them participating for the first time.
