- Young Artists Forum
-
The circle of violence and destruction in Palestine is still going on and seems to be spreading wider day by day. Israeli occupation measures against the Land and the people are harming most aspects of the lives of the Palestinians; children were not spared in this battle. Watching children being deprived from the basic humanitarian aspects of lives was inspiration for the founders to establish the Young Artists' Forum hoping that through this NGO, they might be able to help the children and give them a supportive hand by teaching them the language of arts.
