Beyt Haomanim, Tel Aviv-Yafo, Art gallery and print workshop in Tel Aviv, Israel
Beyt Haomanim is an art center in Tel Aviv that combines a gallery space with a working printmaking workshop. The facility includes printing equipment, artist studios, and exhibition areas where you can see finished work and ongoing projects.
The building dates from the 1920s, when a small troupe led by actress-singer Bat-Sheva Zeisler turned it into a fringe venue called Alharizi Theater, with pianist Jonathan Zak directing the musical program. The large stage preserved between the galleries recalls that period. The Association of Painters and Sculptors later established its center here, and after Joseph Zaritsky's death the house was named after him. The renovated building, with an exhibition hall and a print workshop, was inaugurated on 13 January 1975.
The space serves as a meeting point where artists from Tel Aviv and beyond share their work and creative practice. You can see how printmaking techniques are passed along and valued as part of the local art scene.
Visitors should be prepared to encounter working artists on-site, which makes the experience more interactive. It helps to move slowly through the space and spend time observing both the equipment and the finished pieces on display.
The center allows visitors to watch artists actively printing and directly observe the creative process behind the displayed work. This direct connection between the making and the finished piece is often surprising and enriches the visit.
