Ticho House

Ticho House, situated in Jerusalem's downtown area, is filled with music, old Jerusalem atmosphere and the art of Israel's beloved painter Anna Ticho (1894 -1980). One of the first houses in Jerusalem built outside the Old City walls, the Ticho House is named for Dr. Avraham Ticho and his wife Anna Ticho, the latter of whom bequeathed the house, all of its collections and its library to the people of the city to serve as a public center for art. The Ticho House hosts a permanent exhibition of Anna Ticho's works – mostly Jerusalem landscapes in pencil and charcoal – as well as temporary exhibitions showcasing the works of contemporary Israeli artists and works from the collection of the Israel Museum. It is also home to the Little Jerusalem restaurant and a beautiful and extensive garden. The Ticho House is an off-site venue of the Israel Museum, Jerusalem.
