Our focus is clear: to promote hope and humanity through creative expression

Originating in the North East of England, Zeytoun Arts Collective is a cultural movement focusing on art as a tool for unity and change, that stands firmly for Palestine and for all of humanity.

Our mission is to create a platform where art transcends the limitations of political discourse, polarisation and rhetoric. Inspiring change and inviting awareness around Palestinian history and culture. Contextualising a narrative repeatedly rewritten by mainstream media, by focusing on the power of personal truths. 

Through future events, talks, exhibitions and resources, Zeytoun aims to shine a light on the rich, diverse culture of Palestine. We certainly welcome creators of ALL backgrounds, faiths and disciplines—painters, photographers, sculptors, poets, musicians and more—to contribute well-informed and researched works that resonate with the themes of solidarity, liberation, celebration, and education.

Our focus is clear: to promote hope and humanity through creative expression. Our vision is not just to reflect on the past but also to inspire progress, resilience and hope for the future.

mission statement

Together demanding space for stories that matter and uniting our community in a movement for change. Using art in all its forms to reignite important conversations and humanise the experiences of people marginalised by the broader narrative. Our vision is not just to reflect on the past but also to inspire progress, resilience and hope for the future.
