Building on this history, Zawyeh supports artists through shared learning, unlearning, and collaboration. We aim to build a lasting community that extends beyond the physical space and reaches a wider audience.
Zawyeh also works toward creating a replicable model for independent art spaces. Through our open-source approach, we share what we learn, document our experiences, and continue learning together with the communities around us.
On the ground floor, you’ll find our café, which we call the Ice Breaker. Everyone is welcome, and we mean everyone.
You can come for a coffee and the panoramic view, join a workshop or talk, or listen to local and international DJs, producers, and musicians. The café is an open entry point into Zawyeh, where people can spend time, meet others, and take part in what is happening in the space.
Moneh is our way of collecting what we learn at Zawyeh. We write, document, photograph, sketch, and record what happens during events, workshops, talks, and other activities in the space.
Moneh gives us a way to share these materials with anyone who is interested, keeping what we learn accessible beyond the event and the space itself.
Hasaleh translates to “Piggy Bank”. It is where all the money generated through Zawyeh goes, whether from rentals, workshops, or the Art Market.
Hasaleh is our way of changing how people see money. We make it visible by showing where the money goes and which upcoming projects and events it supports.
While Moneh is our real and playful archive, Fahras is where you find everything else, organised and easy to access.
It includes our facilitators, artists, collaborators, partners, and everyone we have worked with. It helps us keep track of our growing network and makes it easier for others to find and connect with the people behind Zawyeh.
