Arts in the service of promoting values The experience of establishing the artist group “We” in Gaza during the war Alaa Al Jabari, Mahdi Karira, Fidaa Ziad in conversation with Jenny Karaviti
Abstract
As part of the 2024 World Theatre/Drama & Education Day events, the Northern Greece Office of the Hellenic Theatre/Drama & Education Network (TENet-Gr) organised a special event to show solidarity with Palestine. On 7 December 2024 at 11 a.m., they connected virtually with “We” (Nahnu in Arabic), a recently formed group of Palestinian artists who are displaced in southern Gaza. The artists first introduced their team by answering questions about how their group was formed, their experiences as artists during the war and their writing, visual arts and puppet theatre workshops in Gaza.
Photographs and other material from the group’s workshops and performances were shown during the presentation. Afterwards, members of the Northern Greece Office, namely Jenny Karaviti as moderator of the discussion, Irini Marna and Antigone Tsarbopoulou, had a brief conversation with the artists.
