The Jaffa Museum

Hello dear readers

Yesterday my daughter helped me take the miniatures over to the museum.
In my last post I wrote that the mini-art exposition is to replace the dolls but when
we arrived some of the dolls were still there as most of their owners from all over the country
couldn't come to collect them because of the fights in Gasa and the rockets alarms.
We were amazed to discover what a stunning exposition of dolls.  These were not
antiques as I mistakenly thought and wrote.  All were artistically hand made and very beautiful.

The mini-art exposition, due to circumstances, will be postponed and the opening take place
on August 8.  I had to leave everything packed in storage there.

Nilly took a few photos with her Iphone  We didn't take a camera along believing the place
will be empty.

The building itself is very old and the show rooms are stunning.










 I chose to show you these very cute and humorous works.  These are not dollhouse size miniatures.
 I really regret it that we didn't go to see this exposition when it was going on.

A warm welcome to my new follower Angelina .  Thank you for following.   Dear Angelina, please contact me at my email address drorahed@gmail.com.

We are praying and wishing for peace and cease fire on both sides stop the killings on both sides.

Blessings to all

  24. Hola Drora!! Que lugar tan bonito, espero que la exposición vaya fantásticamente bien, ya nos contarás. Y deseo que se acabe de una vez esa guerra absurda, por que siempre acaban pagando los mismos, los infelices. Un beso

  25. I love the style of that museum! It looks like a magical place to go exploring, and the dolls you shared have so much style too! I am really looking forward to your show of miniatures at the museum. I'm already so proud of you! xo Jennifer

  26. This museum is a wonderful place to exhibit beautiful items... your stunning piece will look fantastic in this "showroom". What a pity you missed the dolls exhibition - but at least you've been able to have a look at some of them, although the background why you've been able to do so is a very sad one. I think we all are hoping for peace soon for both sides in your area, my prayers for you and your family.

    Hugs
