and if i am not mistaken it`s located on prince abdulla street,formely known as wali al ahed street.

here is an article i found on this gallery from "Arab News" news paper:


The plastic artist, Safiya Bin Zager started her cultural salon in 1412H/1992 in her family's house in Jeddah. Her first plastic art exhibition was held in Jeddah 1968. This was the birth of women's artistic exhibitions in Saudi Arabia. She is a well-known leader among the pioneers of plastic art. She has continued to make contributions to our artistic heritage for more than thirty years. She has participated in numerous individual and collective exhibitions - both locally and internationally. Her unique contributions have earned her the title "The Artist of the Saudi Heritage."

She established "The House of Safiya Bin Zager" in 1414H/1994 that is basically a museum of all her works. It also houses her private art and literature library; a children's library; and a private studio.
