The Ananeh Center

The Ananeh Center is a new art center being established in the Ein Yael site, located on the periphery of Jerusalem’s Malha neighborhood, at the edge of Nahal Refaim, near the city but in the heart of nature. The Center, comprising an archaeological site with Roman ruins, stretches over 60 dunams (approx. 15 acres) of ancient agriculture with terraces, fruit gardens of trees, pools and a flowing spring, and archaeological ruins. The Ananeh Center is the study site for the interfaces between nature and contemporary art, seeking to provide a response to the increasing need for green habitats, connected with leading worldwide trends engaged in back to nature as the fruitful ground for creating a new culture.
