Art In Tunis

Hello! My name is Heather and I just moved to Tunis. I only speak english, so not only do I need some english speaking friends, but I also need a little guidance into the Tunisian Art world. I am a seriously dedicated painter and would love to have someone to talk about my work with, and who can give me some insight into the contemporary art world here. I also would like to just meet some english speaking people even if you don't know anything about art!

I am looking for any information people have about galleries and their locations, museums, and other artists living in the area! Please help!
