Through a series of creative writing and art workshops, we explore manifestations of the Palestinian coast as a material and emotional geography in our everyday lives. The outcomes of the workshops, created by the participating children, will come together as an art installation to be presented in the Museum’s upcoming exhibition about the Palestinian coast. The installation will seek to evoke a sense of being present on the coast while also illuminating the worlds that are dreamt up in its absence or midst its siege, and the representations of these worlds in Palestinian narratives.

Limited admission, please register: activities@palmuseum.org

Note: Part two of the workshop series will be held in Akka in May.
