De jeunes mécènes se battent pour sauver le palais Sursock
De Telegraaf
Een paleis voor een prikkie, zoals de bekende tv- serie heet, draait om een minimaal budget. Een écht paleis heeft heel wat meer prikkies dan één nodig, zeker als het is getroffen door een verpletterende explosie, zoals het vermaarde Sursock Paleis in Beiroet. De stad is er na de ramp van afgelopen augustus nog lang niet bovenop.

A new fund aims to save Beirut heritage
Podcast - United Citizens of Europe
In this episode, Anton Meshkov interviews Joseph El Hayek. Joseph is a founder of the RestART Beirut project which aims to restore the Sursock Palace after the explosion in Beirut in summer 2020. In this podcast, Joseph talks about the historical and personal significance of the palace and plans for its future. Multiple cultural locations have been damaged by the explosion in Beirut. Thanks to EU funds, the Sursock Palace can be (partially) restored and will be turned into an art residence. Despite the access to EU funds, RestArt Beirut is still struggling to make ends meet, therefore if you can, please donate to their cause.
