Peace Child Israel (original) (raw)

Peace Child Israel was co-founded in 1988 by David Gordon and Yael Drouyannoff to teach coexistence using theater and the arts. We educate for democratic values, tolerance and mutual respect. Arab and Jewish teens from partnering Arab and Jewish schools around the country meet weekly for 8 months before creating original dramas about coexistence and its challenges. The plays, in Arabic and Hebrew, are performed for the public at-large and in a second year of activity, for student audiences.
