Photo Exhibit

Photo exhibit commemorating over 60 years of dispossesion.

 

 

 

In 1998 Sabeel produced Our Story, a photo exhibit and book on the theme of the 50th Anniversary of al-Nakba, "the catastrophe". The exhibit (Sections I-VIII) and added ten extra photos for the ten years that have recently passed (Sections IX-XI). The new photos follow the themes of:

  • Separation - between families and communities and from land, places of work, study, commerce and places of worship
  • Yearning for Peace
  • Failure of the Peace Agreements


A special thank you to Kent Wilkens, Hilary Rantisi, and the photographers for their generous donation of time and talent to this project.

The photo exhibit is an Awareness Resource that can be used to educate andinspire advocacy. It serves as an excellent long-term exhibit on its own in libraries, universities, churches, civic halls, etc. and as a background display for speaker events, conferences and workshops. The 60th anniversary exhibit consists of 82 laminated poster boards, each measuring 16 x 20 inches. There are 61 photo boards and 21 text boards with titles and the text of the Palestinian story of the past 60 years.

The photo exhibit is available to borrow, free of charge for CFOS groups and members and for a rental fee of $50 flat fee for other groups (shipping costs extra). Purchase of the exhibit is also available for $675. Reserve the exhibit or order your own set today from Canadian Friends of Sabeel: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
