The building features a lovely courtyard in the style of an Arab khan (traveler's inn), crests of Scottish nobility, an Armenian ceramics room, and a copy of a 2,700-year-old silver scroll found nearby containing a priestly blessing in ancient Hebrew script.
Visitors are welcome to participate in fascinating tours that focus on the history of Jerusalem, the city’s unique arts and crafts communities, and a stunning panoramic lookout of the city from the roof – enjoy a unique viewpoint of the Old City, the neighborhood of Yemin Moshe and more.
In the center, see artisan workshops with their one-of-a-kind creations, including glassware, copper, jewelry, ceramics, contemporary Judaica, and mosaic art. The center also has a gallery with rotating exhibitions. Conferences, lectures, and cultural and music events are held on-site. The Jerusalem House of Quality was established in 1963 to promote Jerusalem artists and arts and crafts in Jerusalem. The institution was endorsed by Prime Minister Ben Gurion and President Ben Tzvi.
Today, the Jerusalem House of Quality continues with similar goals: to keep artists in Jerusalem and create a space for them to create, thereby maintaining a vibrant arts and culture scene in the city.
