Tel Aviv is one of Israel’s largest cities, with its own unique culture and art scene. Its lively neighborhoods are brimming with artists, design studios, and craft workers and artisans of all types who are continuously creating new and exciting works – often taking inspiration from the city itself and the Land of Israel, and combining traditional Jewish symbols and themes with modern styles and methods.
Since the Hamas attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, and the ensuing war, Tel Avivians have endured over 150 separate rocket attacks, in addition to many residents being called up for reserve duty, losing friends or loved ones, losing their livelihood due to the shutdown of the tourism industry, or suffering other general war-related traumas and stresses. Nonetheless, Tel Aviv artists are continuing to create new works under these conditions, and deserve our support particularly at this difficult time!
