Israeli culture is unique in its diversity and creativity.
In recent years, as Israeli cultural contributions
have been recognized, people around the world are
becoming more aware of this rich tapestry.
No matter where you look on the cultural landscape,
Israeli authors, musicians, filmmakers, actors, dancers
and artists are critically acclaimed. The growing
exposure of Israeli culture in the United States has
helped introduce Americans to an overlooked side of
Israel and its people.
Organizations like the America-Israel Cultural Foundation
(AICF) play a large role in helping to bring Israeli
culture to the United States.
