We invite you to join our creative workshop to make a square to be included in the memoral quilt naming and honouring the children killed in Gaza. During this workshop you will design and make a decorative square in remembrance of an individual child using the beautiful and versatile techniques of appliqué, fabric collage and embroidery. No previous experience is needed, and all guidance and materials are provided.  

Join us for an evening of conversation on the processes, challenges and epiphanies of research-based art. Monya Riachi (Lebanon), Reman Sadani (Iraq) and Mayssa Jallad (Lebanon) will be presenting excerpts of their individual projects, as well as engaging in reflections around their practice. The talk will be moderated by Rahaf Zaher, Researcher, PROCOL Lebanon, Institute for Global Prosperity (UCL)

The talk will begin with 10 minute presentations by each artist and will be followed by a Semi-Structured discussion

SPEAKERS:

The opening reception for Revolution Is Female, a solo exhibition by Palestinian artist Rasha Eleyan. The exhibition explores the vital role of the revolutionary Palestinian woman through pop-inflected, photorealist paintings that bring together beauty, symbolism, domesticity, and female defiance. The reception will introduce the exhibition to invited guests, press, artists, collectors, and supporters, offering an opportunity to view the work, meet the artist and co-curators, and engage with the themes of visibility, agency, resistance, and celebration.

For the London Festival of Architecture 2026, the Palestine Collective seeks to inaugurate its exhibition with a speaking event and panel discussion on the evening of June 26, 2026. Titled ‘Belonging through Practice’, this programme seeks to foreground architectural and artistic practices that engage with questions of Arab diaspora, displacement, and the reconstruction of identity across geographies.
