Dar Jacir for Art and Research
We produce experimental films and host residencies for local filmmakers in Palestine. Our "Bad Residency Program” is specifically for Palestinian filmmakers living in the diaspora. We also host emerging young film curators and mentor them in hosting public film series and cinema clubs. We work with local and international film festivals to host their events in our space for the Bethlehem community. Artist-led, our pedagogical practices and alternative models of education facilitate and give agency to artists and participants to lead, ask questions and encounter Palestinian and international artists, thinkers, and cultural leaders. Through alternative arts education, we also respond to the needs of our community, and strive to engage individuals that might not otherwise have access to creative and artistic opportunities.
