Our poster is a collage in the shape of a tree, symbolizing a deep and lasting connection between the Jewish people and the land of Israel. The top of the tree is filled with images of Israel’s landscapes. Through glimpses of its cities, natural beauty, culture and history, the top of the tree reveals hues of Israel’s diversity. The sand beneath the trunk represents the land itself, in which the tree is rooted as well as our connection to it. At the roots, we have included meaningful words that reflect the strength and values that the Jewish people have endured throughout time. Our roots are part of our future. The roots of the tree contain words that we believe reflect the values that the Jewish people have embraced to thrive. The images of Israel at the top show a country that is alive, vibrant, and unique. By connecting these elements through the tree, we show how Israel represents both the foundation and the continued growth of our own Jewish identity. Our poster conveys the message that Israel is intrinsically linked to our Jewish identity. It shows how the joy and pride taken by the Jewish people come from what lies beneath the surface such as shared experiences, faith, hope and strength. The fruits we harvest today celebrate the existence and the work of past generations of Jews that are now part of the beauty of Israel and the Jewish people.
