Rommana is an artistic and cultural space for children in the besieged Wadi Al-Samen area near Hebron. Rommana overcomes children’s movement restrictions and allows them to live different experiences in the arts, film screenings, story discussions, and book lending services. Rommana builds bridges between children and the place, between the children themselves, and the children and their families.
Rommana won the Rami Zahi Award for Cultural Creativity.
