Palestinian Centre’s literary gatherings
Two photographs of PEN members gathered together for literary events organised by the Palestinian Centre. The photograph above shows a group including Hanan Awwad, president of the Palestinian Centre (1992-), who can be seen kneeling in the middle of the front row. This photograph was most likely taken when PEN members met for the 1st Nordic-Palestinian Poetry Festival, which took place on 23-25 September 1994 in Jerusalem, Jericho, and Gaza City. The photograph below shows a member from the Swedish Centre speaking at the 6th International Poetry Festival in Palestine, which took place in Jerusalem, Nablus and Bethlehem on 1-4 October 1999.
