Oushaq Arts Center is a Palestinian art space established in Jerusalem in 2004. It uses artistic expression as a tool to revive and strengthen the Palestinian cultural life in Jerusalem. Oushaq’s programs focus on strengthening the Palestinian national identity and encouraging creative thinking through dabke (traditional Palestinian folk dance) and other art forms. Oushaq also promotes Palestinian heritage regionally and internationally.
