In 2016, in cooperation with artists, the Department of Dance in the Jerusalem Municipality Culture and Arts Division initiated the founding of a municipal home for independent dance choreographers and performers in Jerusalem.

Beit Yael supports, promotes, and presents independent artists and their work. It fosters the community of dance choreographers and performers in Jerusalem.

To achieve this vision, Beit Yael encourages original creative works and the development of professional solutions, including workspaces (residency), creation, a stage, and visibility.

Beit Yaels goal is to expand the independent' artist's involvement in diverse communities in the city and to enhance employment options for the sake of bolstering communal resilience, economic opportunities, and the availability of culture in Jerusalem, while encouraging cooperation with agencies and institutions.
