Our workshops integrate a rich spectrum of perspectives on the culture of Israel with an art history background. We keep our programs small and limit Open-Art tours to groups of 8 participants. This keeps us light on our feet when moving between sites, and helps support a setting for an ongoing personal exchange and discussion on art and culture. Our schedules are designed to suit your needs during your stay in Israel. Choose a theme ? for a day or for a week, or combine different tours to immerse yourself in visual exploration and creative expression.
