Picturing Scholasticide: Exhibition Launch

Picturing Scholasticide is a traveling exhibition initiated by staff and students of Leiden University to publicize the social and legal effects of Israel's effort to destroy Palestinian institutions of higher education. In partnership with Palestinian photographers and web designers, the exhibition aims to commemorate, build awareness, and support the rebuilding of education institutions in Gaza and across Palestine. The exhibition will run from 9th – 19th April 2026 at Leiden University College (LUC) in The Hague. 

Funding for this exhibition was provided through a KIEM grant from Leiden University and a grant from the Leonhard-Woltjer Stichting (LWS). 

This event is open to LU-card holders.
