The Museum of the Palestinian People celebrates the beauty of Palestinian arts and culture through its work in preserving, documenting, and sharing the history of the people.

Join us for Museum in Bloom: Celebrating Our Growth on Thursday, October 22, 2026.
The wildflowers of Palestine, native to the land, provide sustenance, medicine, and beauty across the villages and valleys. Soon after the first rainfall of October, the fields turn green, and the flowers begin to bloom, reaching their peak from the end of the year through the summer months.
The lush flora inspires poems, art, and embroidery, reflecting the beauty of Palestinian culture with a deep-rooted appreciation for the earth’s bounty. Hillsides of long-stemmed lavender irises, red poppies, purple anemones, white and yellow daisies, and blue lupine flourished across historic Palestine and appear in the stories and memories of our Elders. Even in the harsh conditions of the genocide, the flowers blossom amidst the rubble like the resolve of the Palestinian people.
We are working on our silent auction. Please check back soon!
