The opening as it read in 2015

The Palestinian Museum is a flagship project of the Welfare Association. The Museum is currently under construction in Birzeit (25 km north of Jerusalem) and will be opened in Spring 2016. The Palestinian Museum aims to be a leading, dynamic and innovative forum for creating and communicating research, knowledge and new thinking about Palestinian society, history and culture. As a space that brings together an innovative mix of exhibitions, research, and education programmes, the Museum will offer a place for inspiration, dialogue, and reflection. Through its digital platforms and international partners, the Museum aims to connect with Palestinians wherever they are in the world and with all those interested in Palestine. The Palestinian Museum was conceived as an institution capable of transcending political and geographical borders, and as such it aims to resist the restrictions to mobility imposed by the Israeli occupation and overcome the divisions currently threatening its body politic. Through local, regional and international partnerships and affiliate centers, the Museum will connect Palestinians from all over the world, and thus bring together a people that has been fragmented for decades. An extensive network of partnerships within historic Palestine will also allow it to act as a hub for cultural activity there. In this sense, it is one among a number of cultural projects aiming to resist the ghettoization and fragmentation of the Palestinian people.1
