Family Day (Olive Season): Harvest Dance

Family Day (Olive Season): Harvest Dance

Every autumn, the land is brought back to prominence as Palestinian families everywhere participate in the olive harvest. We celebrate this quintessentially Palestinian event by inviting the public to join us in picking the olives of the Museum gardens.
The harvest will be followed by a dabkeh performance titled ‘Tallat’ by the young and old dancers of el-Funoun Popular Dance Troupe. The performance is based on the folkloric music album Zajel, which chronicles different stages of Palestine’s history.
