Rafah Museum

About

The Rafah Museum was established in December 2022 in the south of the city of Rafah in the Gaza Strip, Palestine. It was founded by Suihala Shaheen, an activist and university lecturer, who holds a doctorate in educational studies from the Arab Research Institute of the League of Arab States in Cairo, and a doctorate in arts education technology from Helwan University in Egypt. The museum was the culmination of 30 years of collecting. Openings, exhibitions, and heritage celebrations were held at the museum to commemorate Earth Day and International Women’s Day.
