Student’s artwork on display in the Leon Family Art Gallery
Tuesday, Feb. 14–Thursday, March 2
Students throughout Tidewater diligently worked on their artistic poster submissions for the 5th Annual Israel Poster Contest, presented by the Community Relations Council of the United Jewish Federation of Tidewater. First through 12th grade students designed original posters depicting one of the cool Israeli facts listed on CRC’s website, JewishVA.org/CRCIsraelPosterContest.
For the first time, all of the students’ work is on display in the Leon Family Art Gallery for the community to vote in person for their favorite. The top 10 finalists will be posted online and in March, the community will vote again, this time electronically.
Once online, families are allowed one vote per day, offering the chance for their student’s creative artwork to promote positive advocacy and educational facts about Israel.
The winning poster (with the most online votes) will be announced on Monday, April 3. The winner will have his/her poster professionally framed and it will hang permanently at the Sandler Family Campus, joining the other celebrated young winners. In addition, attendees of the Israel Festival on Sunday, April 30, will receive a copy of the winning poster. For more information, visit www.JewishVA.org/CRCIsraelPosterContest.
