Downtown Renewal
NEW date!! Thursday February 16th 9:30 AM -12 PM
Reports of the death of Jerusalem's downtown have been greatly exaggerated. This tour will explore the new arts and culture scene in the area near Mahane Yehuda. Is the Klal Center really so bad and how is it being transformed? Where can artists work and how do preservation and innovation go hand in hand? And where is one of the best views in Jerusalem? We will visit the Klal Center, Alliance House, the old Shaare Zedek, Beita art center and more.
Price: 120 NIS per person

Flowers, Fortitude and Farms
Wednesday February 22nd 8:30 AM – 6:30 PM
Springtime in Hevel Shalom is the best time to encounter this lesser known part of the country. Here are the communities that reestablished themselves after Yamit was evacuated. We will see some of the kalaniot fields of Darom Adom, meet a sculptor who makes swords into plowshares (or rockets into roses) see the memorials to 1948 and 1967 battles and much more. Hevel Shalom, on the border with Egypt and Gaza is much closer than you think and at its peak of beauty this time of year! Join me on this special BUS tour.
Price: 275 NIS per person (includes Bus and admissions)
