STUDENT CONTEST 2021
Announcing our 5th Amud aish Annual Visual Arts and Literacy contest!
This contest portrays the lives and challenges of eight Jewish activists during the Holocaust. You have for your consideration, eight original artifacts and photos that describe their activities and lives. Their actions are not only representative of the heroic efforts of these Holocaust rescue activists but also convey the altruistic sacrifices that they made. As the Holocaust unfolded, committed individuals from Switzerland, Austria, Morocco, Slovakia, the United States, and the United Kingdom, pursued options that could only be understood as heroic. They devised ransom plans, secured forged and illegal exit visas and passports for trapped Jews and met with Nazi officials to facilitate Jewish rescue. Their unwavering commitment to never give up despite insurmountable challenges is nothing less than awe-inspiring.
These ordinary artifacts bear testimony to extraordinary deeds and provide us with a model when facing challenges in our own lives and circumstances.
First place PRIZES are $100!
We can’t wait to see what you come up with!
