Lilies of Gaza

Based on the book Lilies of Gaza – WOMEN ARTISTS IN TIMES OF WAR (available on Amazon), this curated show unveils intimate life stories and artistic journeys of women who have faced war, loss, and displacement – yet chose to resist through art. Each artist’s story captures moments of pain and perseverance, and together their voices form a collective testimony of survival, hope and artistic defiance in the face of devastation.

Lilies of Gaza comes to Harbor Country through Bright Stars of Bethlehem, a U.S. nonprofit which raises awareness and support for Dar al-Kalima University, the first and only university for arts, culture, and design in all of Palestine.

This year, 552 students are in Bethlehem, building futures rooted in possibility, with an additional 36,000 youth healing and thriving through art therapy services in Gaza, led by 46 Dar al-Kalima staff and volunteers.
