Notes Interview With Shlomo Zafrir

Shlomo Zafrir is a painter and, at the same time, the owner of a nightclub called Omar Khaim located in Old Jaffa. The building housing the nightclub is hundreds of years old and, as its name suggests, is of oriental or mid-eastern flavor. Mr Zafrir paints realistic oils of the young people of Jaffa as a specialty along with paintings of the Port of Jaffa. He is in the United States to exhibit his art in New York and Philadelphia. As far as the nightclub is concerned, it caters to those who enjoy folk singing and is apparently very successful.
