Connections Israel Art Competition is about to debut !
Dear Friends,
We are happy to announce that the first Connections Israel art competition is about to debut!
We received over one hundred beautiful works of art from students all over the world – USA, Canada, England, Russia, Ukraine, Argentina and Germany.
This year’s theme was “Jewish Solidarity”.
The art competition will take place every two years and is open to Jewish high school and university aged students.
The more than one hundred entries included paintings, photographs, poetry, and sculptures. A panel of experts chose 25 from among these entries that have been brought to Israel for an exhibition. This art exhibit will open shortly in the city of Sderot and ultimately tour Israel prior to going to Jewish communities abroad.
We are busy attending to the final details and hopeful that government officials from the department of Culture will participate in the opening of the exhibit. As soon as these details are worked out, you will receive a formal invitation.
I want to take this opportunity to thank all of those schools and students who sent us their works.
Only one of you will get the first prize, but all of you are now more connected!
Sincerely,
Mordechai D. Cohen
Director – Connections Israel
