The American Israelite is inviting kids of all ages to participate in our Rabbi Isaac Mayer Wise drawing contest. 

Have you ever submitted art to The American Israelite for Passover? For Hanukkah? This drawing contest is aimed at those who have sent art to us for holiday contests and who want a chance to win a signed copy of Geri Kolesar’s children’s book “Dream by Dream.” 

Children of all ages can submit their art. 

Just like the holiday drawing contests, children of all ages and from all backgrounds are welcome to submit their drawings of Rabbi Wise’s dream. 

The contest runs until Sunday, February 25th. The top three winners will receive a signed, hardcover copy of “Dream by Dream,” and 5 runners up will win a signed, paperback copy of the book. 

Drawing Contest Prompt: 

Isaac Mayer Wise dedicated his whole life to making his dreams become reality. One of his dreams was that people of all faiths and beliefs could live together side by side, learning together and sharing their experiences.

How would you show people of all religions getting along and learning from each other?
