​The International Writers Festival in Jerusalem contains many literary events that combine film, music and theatre as well. The festival aims at attracting a variety of audiences: scholars, students and the general public, giving them the opportunity to meet the writers for book-readings, panel discussions, writing and translation seminars and concerts, as well as films and plays based on novels. One of the main aspects of this festival is to encourage children and teenagers to read. Mishkenot Sha’ananim is holding several events in schools, together with authors and students.
