”Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue and the dreams that you dare to dream
really do come true…”
Inspired by this iconic line, Over the Rainbow is more than just an art exhibition, it is a
celebration of optimism, transformation, and the enduring power of hope. The rainbow
stands as a symbol of transition: from a world of uncertainty to one of color, renewal,
and possibility.
This collective exhibition brings together the vibrant work of 16 women artists from
the six seasons of Artists of Beirut. Together, they explore the theme through more than
50 eclectic artworks spanning a variety of mediums and techniques including: Painting,
Sculpture, Mixed media, Collage, Photography, Digital Art, Ceramic and Upcycling art.As part of the show, two interactive artistic workshops will be hosted to further engage
