The Jerusalem Music Festival
Every year, The Jerusalem Music Festival takes place in the backdrop of culture's social and national significance in the city of Jerusalem's survival battle. Cultural expression allows the Palestinian people to remain strong and keep their hopes and dreams for a better future alive. National identity is cultivated and interwoven into history through a variety of human activities, including music, theater, cinema, poetry, fiction, thought, education, architecture, and sociopolitical action. These various activities tell the tale of a people who are deeply entrenched in their homeland and who work persistently to attain freedom, independence, and progress.
Since its inception in 1996, The Jerusalem Music Festival has displayed an artistic-cultural vision in this annual event of diverse arts presented in diverse locations throughout the city. The Festival has attracted a huge number of participants and adhered to the philosophy of collaboration and participation with artists and community organizations. Furthermore, in order to promote local capacities and create popular cultural platforms, the Festival has prioritized local productions. The Festival is a forward-thinking national arts festival.
People can take part in a variety of cultural events and activities in Jerusalem, including music, dancing, literature, film screenings, children's programs, and improvisations.
