Direct from Israel: A powerful, unforgettable evening with former Israeli hostage, singer/songwriter/pianist Alon Ohel.

This event is presented in partnership with the Canada-Israel Cultural Foundation.

24-year old pianist Alon Ohel was abducted from the Nova Music Festival and survived 738 days in Hamas captivity, enduring long periods of isolation underground, malnutrition, and injury.

In this triumphant evening, Alon will share not only his music, but his inspiring story of survival, discussing how music is more than just artistic expression. Joined by his brother Ronen on guitar, Alon will demonstrate the incredible power of music to heal.

Once silenced, he now plays with renewed purpose, offering a quiet yet powerful reminder of resilience, healing, and hope.

Featuring an interview by Avi Benlolo, Founding Chairman and CEO of the Abraham Global Peace Initiative.

For security reasons, the venue location will be shared with ticket-holders 24 hours before the event.

This event is made possible through the generosity of UJA’s Kultura Collective and Mary Ellen Herman.

With community support from Allied Voices for Israel and International Christian Embassy Jerusalem.
