A dance, performance, and music event will take place on September 3, 2026, at the Ramat Eshkol Commercial Center in Jerusalem, as part of the START ART series.
What happens when the everyday spaces of a neighborhood become a living stage for art?
START ART — Body. Coffee. Culture in the Neighborhoods 2026 — a series of dance, performance, and music events taking place in business districts throughout Jerusalem, bringing original works to the heart of city life.
The series invites Jerusalem residents to encounter professional art close to home — between the neighborhood café, familiar shops, streets, and shopping centers. Through a direct encounter between artists, the community, and local businesses, a unique cultural experience emerges—one that expands the boundaries of the traditional stage and connects art with life itself.
An initiative by the Dance Department, in collaboration with the Business Development Division and the Music Department of the Jerusalem Municipality and the community administrations, led by Yael — a home for independent dance and performance creators in Jerusalem.
