Within the framework of its ‘Falastin al Hadara’ program, Darat al Funun presents a number of exhibitions that look at both pioneering and contemporary art in Palestine. This exhibition presents original copies of early newspapers in Palestine and Huna al Quds radio recordings, dating from the beginning of the 20th century until 1948. A time when culture, national movements, translation, and arts flourished, and newspapers like Al-Karmel (1908), An-Nafais Al-Assriah (1908), Al-Akhbar (1909) and Falastin (1911) attracted prominent Palestinian and Arab journalists and writers. The exhibition also features audio recordings from the radio station Huna Al Quds ("This is Jerusalem") (1937- 1948), as well as a film on the radio station by director Raed Dizdar. In addition, photographs are shown that observe the world of journalism at that time.
