P21 is encouraging donations to We Are Not Numbers. Every donation goes directly to paying our Gazan writers for their stories.
Once you donate, your name will be entered into a PRIZE DRAW where you will have the chance to win one of the pieces exhibited.

P21 Gallery is pleased to present We Are Not Numbers, an exhibition featuring works from talented Palestinian artists and storytellers. The exhibition offer visitors a glimpse into the rich culture, heritage, and struggles of Palestinian lives — the real-life stories behind the narrative-free statistics that predominate in the media. In addition to the visual displays, the exhibition will include panel discussions, film screenings, and interactive workshops exploring various aspects of Palestinian life, history, and activism.

The P21 Gallery We Are Not Numbers exhibition celebrates a diverse range of Palestinians’ life stories, with the writings amplified in the exhibit by experienced media professionals. Through various forms of artistic expression, including photography, paintings, and multimedia installations, the exhibition showcases the resilience, creativity, and humanity of Palestinians living under occupation and in refugee camps.

At the heart of the exhibition is the recognition that every Palestinian has a story to tell, a voice to be heard, and the right to justice. By providing a platform for these narratives, the exhibition challenges stereotypes, breaks down barriers, and fosters understanding and solidarity.

The exhibition is in partnership with WANN and organized by a volunteering team: Almuhannad Allahham and Taya Amit “Curators,” Karen King “Advisor,” and Soraya Fahmi “Graphic Designer.”

All proceeds from this exhibit and related donation will go directly toward paying WANN’s Gazan writers for their stories.
