February 2026, Hebron-France Association for Cultural Exchange - Hebron, Palestine

The Hebron-France Association for Cultural Exchange welcomed the holy month of Ramadan with a day of recreational and community activities for children and residents of Hebron's Old City. The event combined the joy of childhood with volunteerism and social solidarity.

Festivities began with the “Color Yourself” segment, transforming children’s faces into vibrant artistic canvases. This was followed by a special interactive performance by the association’s clown, filling the day with laughter and imagination.

Beyond entertainment, the children took part in a voluntary tour through the historic alleys of the Old City, distributing sweets to local residents and merchants, a gesture promoting active citizenship and community engagement.

The association’s management emphasized that the day was designed to provide psychological support through play and art while fostering social responsibility. The event reflects the organization’s ongoing commitment to creating safe, happy spaces for children in areas with high cultural and social needs.
