    Meet Palestine Museum Founder Faisal Saleh | Falastin with Jehan Alfarra
    Jul 10 2025

    Today, we speak to a man who has built a museum not for a state, but for a people.


    Faisal Saleh is the founder and executive director of the Palestine Museum, which first opened as Palestine Museum US in Woodbridge, Connecticut, and has since travelled across the Atlantic. The first European branch of the Palestine Museum opened in the Scottish capital Edinburgh in May, as Palestinians marked the 77th anniversary of the Nakba.


    Born to refugee parents forced out in 1948, Faisal’s journey spans continents and disciplines, from business to art. Today, he is on a mission to centre Palestinian artists and to protect and project Palestinian art and identity in all its complexity.Falastin In Focus is a space to examine the history, identity, culture, art and politics of Palestine in depth. Presented by Gaza-born journalist Jehan Alfarra in collaboration with the Palestine Museum and Middle East Monitor's Palestine Book Awards.
