About
حقائق سريعة: Walking through the airy galleries you notice a lively mix of contemporary installations and traditional crafts, with natural light and high ceilings making colors pop. Rotating shows arrive often, so visitors can find everything from avant-garde video art to intimate retrospectives in a building sprinkled with elegant Art Deco flourishes.
النقاط البارزة: On Thursday evenings the villa's mosaic courtyard lights up under warm lamps as about 15 local and visiting artists lay out canvases, trade sketches, and pass around steaming glasses of mint tea, creating a crackling, convivial studio that smells of paint and sugar. Upstairs an old 1950s typewriter sits on a sun-faded desk and visiting writers leave short typed poems in a wooden box, while the air carries citrus blossom and linseed oil so strongly you could sketch by smell alone.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes, floors and stairs are often stone and slightly uneven.
- Ask at the front desk for a map and info on current temporary shows to focus your visit.
- Visit mid-morning to avoid school groups that often arrive on weekend afternoons.
- Check the photo policy, non-flash photography is usually allowed but some works may be restricted.
