COMING HOME: A Special Evening of Peace, Culture and Dialogue in Tiberias

On November 26, 2026, Miriam Jaskierowicz Arman will host COMING HOME, her first major event in Tiberias as the Official Representative and Ambassador for Peace of the International Association for Arts and Culture for Peace, IAACP-EUME Israel.

Taking place at the Hotel & Museum Dona Gracia in Tiberias at 8:00 p.m., the evening will bring together a diverse group of guests from public life, culture, faith and international peace initiatives, each offering a personal perspective on identity, return, dialogue and the future of Israel.

For Miriam, bringing this event to Tiberias carries a special meaning. The city is not only her home, but also the setting for a gathering designed to create meaningful human connections through conversation, culture and shared values.

The evening will open with Yosef (Yossi) Naveh, Mayor of Tiberias, who will offer an introduction and welcome to the participants and guests.

Miriam will speak on “Returning HOME after October 7th,” reflecting on the meaning of home, identity and return in the aftermath of one of the most difficult periods in recent Israeli history.

Hod Ben Zvi, Chair of the Universal Peace Federation in Israel, will present “The Logic of Love,” exploring the role of human connection and understanding in the pursuit of peace.

Tom Wegner, Founder and CEO of The Abrahamic Movement, will speak on “The Abraham Accords – As the Key to Israel’s Future,” bringing the perspective of a movement dedicated to building bridges and strengthening cooperation across the Abrahamic world.

Yaffa Batya DaCosta, President and CEO of Ezra L’Anousim in Jerusalem, will present “THE EXILES RETURN! Divine Promise Becomes Reality,” addressing the themes of return, heritage and belonging.

Ha Rav Tzvi Hersh Zalmanov, of Chabad of Mordot, Tiberias, will offer “Returning Home – A Jewish and Hasidic Perspective,” adding a spiritual dimension to the evening’s central theme.

The program will also feature Moshe’ Baudouin, Olim Coordinator for the Municipality of Tiberias and the Ministry of Aliyah and Integration, who will present “Tiberias Odyssey – 3,500 Years of History,” connecting the contemporary city with its long and remarkable historical journey.

For Miriam, the event represents an important step in her work with IAACP in Israel. Through art, culture, faith, dialogue and personal encounter, COMING HOME seeks to create a space where different voices can be heard and where people can meet around themes that reach beyond political or cultural divisions.

As Miriam expressed when announcing the event, every guest brings a special message to share, and she hopes that both local residents and visitors from outside Tiberias will have the opportunity to take part.

COMING HOME will take place on Thursday, November 26, 2026, at 8:00 p.m., at the Hotel & Museum Dona Gracia, Tiberias, Israel.

Admission is free and the program will be conducted in English.

Visitors coming from outside Tiberias who may require accommodation can inquire about reservations at the Hotel & Museum Dona Gracia.

Welcome to Tiberias for an evening of culture, dialogue, reflection and peace.
