This touring exhibition brings together works by two groups of young artists from Nablus and Hebron, offering a powerful insight into everyday life in the West Bank. Featuring over 50 artworks by children aged 5–15, the exhibition reflects a range of expressions, from untutored, instinctive mark-making to works developed through guided learning, each carrying personal narratives shaped by their lived experiences.

Together, these works speak of resilience, imagination, and the role of creativity in navigating complex realities.

The exhibition is supported by Artcore and Derby Friends of Hebron.

We warmly invite you to visit and engage with these moving and insightful works.
