Dar Al Mousawwer – House of Photographers

A photography house called “Dar Al Mousawwer” has recently opened in a two story building in Clemenceau (Beirut as an initiative by an NGO called Zakira.

The first floor of the house is an under construction coffee shop, while the second has several rooms for workshops, studio, gallery space, development room.

As per the people behind it, the place has been made for people to rents cameras (and there are hundreds of them) and photography equipments, in addition to studio space and development rooms.

Definitely worth a visit if you’re into photography!

I would like to thank Ayman Itani from OnOffBeirut for providing all the details and photos about this photography house.

    would love to see you shooting Lebanon! you pay attention to smallest details that we usually neglect here, so it would be interesting to see the photos you’ll take! 🙂
