Culture

The Culture Department initiates activities and connections between different groups with diverse cultural backgrounds, with the aim of exposing the audience to a wider range of cultural content as much as possible, based on Beit Ha'Gefen's central belief that such exposure promotes understanding, tolerance, and intercultural discourse. Among other things, the department also seeks to promote local artists and creators in various disciplines, and to strenghten artists and creators from different communities in order to bring less audible voices from the background to the forefront.

Three times each year, the Culture Department at Beit Ha'Gefen produces different festivals, the Holiday of Holidays, Arab Culture Days, and Haifa Stories.
