Awake Goy You don’t need to travel to Jerusalem to take part in this year’s art and musical festival Musrara Mix. Celebrating its 20th year, the multidisciplinary festival is being held online, with a dedicated website for its program of featured Israeli and international artists.
Produced by Musrara — The Naggar School of Art and Society, and housed in the historic surroundings of the Musrara neighbourhood, the festival will span three days with a program of video performances, video art, pre-recorded shows, an international student film contest and audiovisual works, all under the direction of festival curator Vera Korman and festival director Avi Sabag.
The works will open for viewing every day at a scheduled time and will remain available for streaming for 24 hours.
This year, the festival staff invited musician and performance artist Noam Enbar to curate a special program about Transfiguration, part of the festival theme of healing and magical traditions.

Given the global pandemic that has affected every aspect of peoples’ lives, the festival will examine the new relationships between spirituality and art, and the constant changes taking place in the world.
The participating artists were invited to create artworks addressing the transfiguration theme, and many chose to create their works in the physical spaces of the Jerusalem neighbourhood.
