Jerusalem Season of Culture

Center City Fodor's choice

Also known as Mekudeshet, this group of Israelis and Palestinians work together to offer artistic and musical productions from their home base—known as Feel Beit on the Jerusalem Sherover Promenade. They seek change for all residents of Jerusalem, and put on events several times a year at Feel Beit, its terrace, or on nearby sections of the Sherover Promenade.
