Al-Ma'mal Photography workshops publication
Between 1999 and 2001 al-ma'mal has hosted and supervised a project, whereby professional photographers have taught Palestinian children and teenagers the art and techniques of photography. the project was realized in affiliation with numerous communiity centers throughout Jerusalem. over 200 youths, who were supplied with equipment, materials and training by local or international professionals, have participated in these workshops. what's more, they were provided with a powerful tool , that enabled them to express themselves and document their own lives. the works have been exhibited in jerusalem and sweden and have finally been put together in this book as a comprehensive documentation and visual evidence. the first 94 pages present the work of the trainees, another 50 pages show the work of the artists, who were involved in the project, either as trainers or artists in residence.

Al-Ma'mal art workshops documentation(2002-2003).
In 2001, following the success of the first workshop in photography, we decided to diversify and expand the workshops to encompass various forms of visual art. Artists employed to design and deliver the workshops were encouraged to utilize whatever approach, medium and technique they thought would best serve the purpose and the endeavor, as well as following through Al-Ma’mal’s overall objectives. The possibilities included experimentation in drawing, painting, collage clay installation, photography, and video. Our main objective was to introduce art to children/youth and allow art’s positive energy to touch their lives; to create a conducive environment for group interaction, cooperation, mutual understanding, and tolerance. It became very evident to us in the course of the workshops we conducted that there was genuine yearning for such activities and the atmosphere they create. The new structure offered a higher level of involvement and participation, rather then have the trainees simply be passive observers. To date, we have been able to work with seven various artists in the production of ten workshops that were offered to two hundred youths ages 9-18 (mostly youths from underprivileged neighborhoods with social and economic disadvantages from Jerusalem, Bethlehem and the surrounding areas). WORKBOOK is a documentation of the art workshops that took place in 2002 and 2003. The publication was made possible with a generous grant from Tamkeen Project. Workbook copies are for sale. Feel free to contact us!
