Audience on 29 April, at the exhibition opening night (photos below also from the opening night).
Artists and cultural activists play crucial
roles within their own societies, generating public discussions and discourses
on a variety of topics through the use of their innovative cultural mediums.
Although no one doubts the pivotal roles of artists, actors, musicians and
cultural creators in fostering social change, these groups have not hitherto
been systematically involved in civil society engagement with the
Palestinian-Israeli peace process. Their involvement, within and amongst
Palestinian, Israeli and international civil societies, can make a potentially
strong contribution to the building of a culture of resistance and ending the
Israeli-Palestinian conflict while preparing for a future of joint living for
Palestinians and Israelis.
To commemorate 60 years to the Naqba
and within the framework of its Culture of Resistance activities, the Alternative
Information Center (AIC) most cordially invites you to an art exhibition that it
is holding together with Arabita: The League of the Arabs of Jaffa and the Alon
Association. Entitled Good Morning Jaffa, the exhibition explores the
connections between exile, culture and right to come home.
The exhibition opens on Tuesday night, 29
April, from 7.30 p.m. in the Center of the League of the Arabs of Jaffa, 73
Yefet Street, Jaffa. The opening night will be accompanied by a musical
performance - and dare we hope that the artist, Yousef Katalo from Hebron, receives permission to enter Israel
and attend?
The exhibition runs through 1 May, and is
open from 10am to 9pm.
Everyone is most invited to attend.
