>> What is Omanoot’s mission? Omanoot helps local Israeli audiences, Jews living outside of Israel, and anyone interested in Israel or the arts connect with Israeli arts and culture. Omanoot provides a stage not for Israel’s political leaders, but for its creative leaders: its storytellers, its musician and filmmakers, its poets, and its artists. Israeli art is a powerful, nuanced way to learn about this fascinating country, and Omanoot makes this art accessible. (

Omanoot strives to be both inclusive and selective: although we represent a wide range of work on the site, Omanoot’s staff carefully reviews everything we post and selects its featured artists and artwork very carefully. Selected artists are asked to sign a non-exclusive contract with Omanoot. Omanoot.com is not a user-generated, public forum like Youtube or Myspace. (
