Art Gallery
The art gallery organizes exhibitions and programs, with the participation of Palestinian and Jewish artists.
One of the newest projects of the village is the art gallery and sculpture garden. The concept has gradually evolved (read description) with the help of the financial and moral support from friends in the country and from around the world. The project is managed under the framework of the Pluralistic Spiritual Community Center and the association of educational institutions.
The gallery represents an alternative vision that reflects the concept of the village and thinking beyond differences and conflicts, to develop a common human identity and the concept of peace.
The gallery is located on the ground floor of the Peace Library Building, including the surrounding space.
The target audience is local and international groups and individuals of all ages - children, youth and adults.
The gallery presents themed exhibitions which are advertized on the web site. The gallery can be opened upon request, but please contact us in advance in order to coordinate your visit.
Gallery Curator: Dyana Shaloufi Rizek
Visit Center coordinator: Rita Boulos
