How to get there?
From the coastal highway drive north-east on highway 65 until you reach the Umm el-Fahem junction. Turn right into Umm el-Fahem (if you are coming from the north you should turn left instead) and continue straight along the boulevard. Once you have passed three round-abouts continue driving for another 500m until you have reached a tire repair shop on your right. Turn right onto the up-hill road and continue for 300m to the gallery (you may also follow the signs to the gallery from the entrance of the city).
