The Munib and Angela Masri Foundation supports artistic and cultural advancement initiatives that highlight the wealth of the Palestinian contribution to the creative arts. Palestine’s heritage is rich in artistic expression and community traditions that embrace music, dance, literature, folklore and film. Recognizing that a vibrant cultural life is central to social development, the MDF directs funding and in-kind support to initiatives that celebrate Palestinian contributions to Arab culture, and that provide both outlet and opportunity for artists and the communities in which they work.
