The Israel Museum presents Contact Point: an all night arts festival.
Thursday, July 25, 8 pm - 3 am
NIS 60, NIS 30 for students, seniors, and children; free for members
Part of the Jerusalem Season of Culture.
About Contact Point:
Perhaps you are familiar with the experience of wandering through the Museum's galleries and Art Garden, taking in the art as spectators. Tonight, however, you are invited to become active participants: build an archaeological tell with discarded items; play in a match with the HaPoel Katamon soccer team; prepare artistic Iraqi bread with performance artist Hadas Ofrat in the framework of a Food Truck initiative; and take part in many more exciting activities throughout the night. For the fourth year, artists in a wide range of media engage with artworks throughout the campus, creating singular "contact points" with the Museum, its artworks, and the audience. Wear comfortable shoes, bring along something - a small object or an old book - and prepare to experience the Museum in a different light.
Artistic director: Renana Raz
