Ṣilāt thrives to bind communities together by promoting and safeguarding identities, traditions, and values through public cultural programs and artistic activities. We believe in the strategic and transformative role of Culture in the socio-economic and human development of societies and communities. With the absence of comprehensive and inclusive nationwide cultural policies, Ṣilāt was founded to:
- Contribute to the efforts that ensure Culture, in all its
manifestations, is apprehended and in reach for every citizen.
- Assist by being proactive in finding and implementing solutions and strategies that fit the context and respond to the local needs.
- Promote policies and contribute to the efforts of devising sound cultural policies.
- Empower the community to reconnect with its cultural heritage through arts, culture, and creative industries.
Foster cross-cultural acceptance, mutual understanding, and respect at the level of citizens as well as communities.
- Collaborate with relevant stakeholders at all levels.
- Establish cross-field private and public partnerships.
*Activities focusing on cultural mediation, awareness and outreach*
- Reviving History - Tabbal building
Ṣilāt revived the history of the Tabbal building through a series of guided tours shedding the light on the families and people who inhabited the different levels throughout the years. Ṣilāt researched the historical, social, economic and architectural conditions and values of the Tabbal Building (Sursock, Plot 156), led the guided tours and promoted the importance and needs to preserve Beirut’s gem. Due to the deteriorating state of the building following the tragic explosion of Beirut’s port, Ṣilāt supported the Tabbal family in decision-making through creating the “Tabbal building emergency conservation management plan”. For more information, please refer to Newsletter attached.
-Cultural and archeological mediation - Deir El Qalaa
Ṣilāt participated in Art Design Lebanon’s exhibition "Lost in the right direction" by introducing two interventions on the archaeological remains. The first is a designed installation titled Extrusion that restitute some of the Byzantine Basilica’s columns with a new material. This restitution aims to enhance the understanding of the basilica’s layout. The second is an archaeological and anthropological intervention at one of the olive presses present on site revealing its layout and reintroducing some of its elements. The intervention aims to explain the process of olive oil extraction during the Byzantine period. In parallel, Ṣilāt organized tours of the archaeology at the site during the exhibition’s duration in collaboration with AD Lebanon and the Directorate General of Antiquities in Lebanon. Please refer to the attached article.
