Why We Exist
In an age of division, we build bridges, harnessing the arts to remind us of our shared humanity.
We facilitate authentic cultural exchange between bold, brilliant artists from Israel and communities across the U.S., with a special focus on Black-Jewish dialogue and engagement.
Cultivating Connection Across Cultures
BAMAH is a cultural dialogue and exchange organization that works with artists from Israel to create transformative, cross-cultural experiences.
Our Programs
BAMAH’s programs catalyze creativity, conversation, and connection across cultures.
Campus
Places leading artists from Israel on university campuses for semester-long residencies, with a focus on Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).
Connections
Creates bespoke arts-based experiences for schools, museums, and cultural organizations.
We choose diversity over division. Understanding over ignorance. Connection over polarization.
We're driven by a deep belief in the capacity of the arts to build a more just, inclusive, and peaceful world.
Art provides space for diverse viewpoints that dismantle dualities. Through cross-cultural collaboration, we build authentic, lasting relationships among people who might otherwise never meet.
