He’s been ten years old since 1969.

Naji al-Ali drew Hanzala — a barefoot child with his back turned — and said he wouldn’t grow up until Palestine was free. Al-Ali was assassinated in London in 1987. Hanzala is still ten.

After October 2023 we asked ourselves, what we could do as artists. The answer was on the wall. We built a show around him: his cartoons animated, live music, film, poetry, theater, and dance. We performed it for the first time in February 2024 with more than 20 artists from different cultures, and people stayed afterward to tell us how impactful and healing this experience was.

Do you feel it too? There’s something about this song that feels like homemade cooking, or the moment warmth starts once get under a cozy (weighted?) blanket on a cold day.

When we met Mosab Abu Toha, it sounds like we’ve known each other for a long time. It’s not a surprise given value, share, and appreciation for the power of the arts. This clip is from an impromptu performance with Mosab in Washington DC at Dar AlHurriya’s exhibit honoring Naji Al Ali.

Twelve years of work, finally in one place.

Hanzala. Ghawar in Amerika. Music of Ramadan. Dar. The singing workshops. Step Inward. All of it was living in old links and dead flyers. Now it has a home.

Go look around. Tell us what’s missing.
