Our philosophy

Jaffa Art Sessions is a feast. It’s a visual dinner party where instead of dishes there are paints and canvases. It’s aesthetics and meanings, where every detail speaks eloquently with its history.

We created our project in October 2023 to bring those together who value history, art, strive to spend quality time and have a desire to immerse in a magic world of paints, canvases and wine that moves them from everyday life into something new and unique.

Today, we’re here to host your perfect evening at the historical house of Old Jaffa for you to understand a little bit more about yourself or even start your own creative journey.

Meet Your Hosts

Anastasia Branitskaia
Co-founder, Artist, Art Manager

“I’m inspired by the process of creating and building something unique. At Jaffa Art Sessions our guests reveal their inner artists and introspect. Our project brings people together, and I believe that each painting created by our guests at Art Sessions is not only a valuable piece of self-reflection, but also a reflection of our times”.
