Every Friday at 11:00 AM, a guided tour takes place, which includes a historical overview of the building and the geographical environment and guidance on the exhibits on display.

Every Friday at 11:00 AM, a guided tour of the three exhibitions on display at the museum takes place:

•    "House of Measures" - Einat Leader presents a miniature collection of jewelry, keepsakes, and architectural fragments that engage with the politics of memory and historical and contemporary themes of loss, repression, and blindness, through the intimate material language and the quiet resistance of handcrafted work.
•    "Geula" - David Goss’s painterly-sculptural installation, inspired by the museum’s geographic and symbolic location, activates the exhibition space as a layered associative field where references to religion, politics, and artistic legacies converge and clash, critically examining the tensions between utopian visions and dystopian reality in a site burdened with historical and ideological weight.
•    "Exchanging Lemons in Lefkosia and Lefkoşa" - Ovidiu Anton’s poetic work employs the simple act of exchanging lemons across Nicosia’s longstanding dividing line to reflect on the absurdity of political separation, the weight of identity, and everyday life shaped by imposed borders.
•    "Monuments" - In a series of black-and-white photographs documenting Confederate monuments and the protests demanding their removal following the killing of George Floyd in 2020, Yoav Horesh captures a decisive moment in a controversial American history and its enduring impact on contemporary society.

Weekly tours are conducted in Hebrew. To check the tour schedule in English and Russian, please visit our website.
