Mission

NAWRAS

Nawras is a nonprofit organisation Berlin founded in 2017 that seeks to ensure the continuity of immigrant art and culture in Germany. Nawras supports artists by creating opportunities and facilitating partnerships in an open and welcoming environment that helps artists pursue their work both independently and in collaboration with others.

Vision

personal artistic projects.

Towards establishing Syrian and immigrant artists practicing and producing their artwork through a conscious, fair, equal, and meaningful interaction within their new environment in Germany.

Background

meet the needs of artists.

The founding group members are Syrian and immigrant artists who live in Berlin and it is through their own experience that they understand those needs. Our main priority is to support immigrant artists in their new lived experience in Germany. 

NAWRAS is a space for establishing collaborations and networks based on mutual understanding and equality. With great respect for the professionalism of the represented artists, 

we encourage the presentation of Syrian cultural productions to a German and international audience. For this reason, it is crucial to provide a suitable environment for Syrian artists to help them pursue their artistic work without having to engage in specific agendas or themes away from their personal artistic projects.
