Jerusalem Print Workshop

The Jerusalem Print Workshop is a center dedicated to the promotion and fostering of the art of printmaking. The workshop was founded in 1974 by Arik Kilemnik – winner of the 2001 Teddy Kollek Jerusalem Foundation Prize – as a non-profit organization. Since 1977 the workshop is located in a picturesque building from the Ottoman period in Morasha neighborhood, on the seam line between east and west Jerusalem. The Workshop wishes to be a home to Jerusalem based artists and artistic creation that will integrate traditional techniques with innovative technologies, and thus form a direct link to the glorious tradition of Hebrew print in Jerusalem and in the Land of Israel.
