The Palestinian Museum hosted and facilitated a creative empowerment workshop conducted by artist Rachel Gadsden and attended by 18 Jerusalemite women who have experienced very significant human or material losses, including the death or injury of a family member, demolition of their home, and loss of livelihood or material resources.
The workshop gave these women the opportunity to find an artistic voice with which to share their personal narratives as a part of the healing process, and to make themselves heard by both the local and international communities.
