Our Vision

Our story is one of resilience and renewal

Our vision is liberation; a world where people are not oppressed because of their ethnicity, religion, heritage or any other arbitrary division used to draw boundaries between us. A world where connection triumphs over division. We are here to show and teach the world what it means to be free. 

We bring Palestine home

We seek to create pathways for Palestinians to connect to their cultural heritage—and for others to open their hearts to Palestinian stories. To bring Palestine home is to carry it into our hearts, as Palestinians, and into the hearts of all people. While the Palestinian people have long been denied a geographic homeland, we affirm that Palestine continues to live—within us, between us, and across generations.As the poet Mahmoud Darwish once wrote: “Every people have a country in which they live, except us Palestinians—we have a country that lives in us.” This is our promise: to the Palestinian people, and the world. The museum will be a home away from home, and we will bring Palestine home.

Our stories are many, our hearts are one
