Djerbahood (Erriadh Street Art Village)
الرياض
Since 2014, street artists from dozens of countries have painted the walls of this small white village, creating an open-air “Djerba graffiti museum.”
Erriadh (formerly Hara Sghira) is a traditional village of white walls. In 2014, the Paris gallery Itinerrance launched the Djerbahood project, inviting more than 150 street artists from over 30 countries to paint about 250 works on the village’s walls, doorways and domes. New pieces have been added since. The village is free to visit. The lanes are small, so a walk takes 1–2 hours. Some works have faded in the sun or been repainted, and maps are available at the café or shops at the village entrance. Please respect residents’ privacy and do not enter courtyards uninvited. It is only about 1 km from the El Ghriba Synagogue, so the two can be visited together.
