About the Jenin Creative Cultural Centre
J3C opened in response to the violence in Jenin Refugee Camp. We promote justice and peace in Palestine through art, culture and education.
The Jenin Creative Cultural Centre (J3C) opened in 2005 by youth from Jenin in response to violence in Jenin Refugee Camp. The centre uses art and cultural projects to foster peace and promote justice in the Palestinian Occupied Territories. Our vision is to use art, culture and education as tools for young Palestinians to advance the concepts of peace, justice and equity while dealing with the realities of their lives.
J3C works on two levels: locally and internationally.
Activities in the local community include:
- Artistic workshops
- Dance classes
- Theatre and music performances, as well as puppet and clown shows in the schools
Additionally, the centre works to bring these activities abroad in order to gain publicity about our efforts and about Palestine in the international media.
The Jenin Creative Cultural Centre – goals
J3C aims to promote active leadership of youth in Jenin. We want to provide them with the necessary tools and support needed to develop the skills and knowledge to promote peace and justice. We aim to:
- Foster education in order to promote tolerance, reconciliation, non violence and democracy
- Empower women as part of society and protect the environment through action
- Support dialogue between cultures both locally and internationally as a means to strengthen relationships and improve understanding
