Yummy Yom Yerushalayim BBQ

LCW students gather for a festive evening to celebrate the Israeli national holiday

May 09, 2013

In honor of Yom Yerushalayim, students gathered on the festively decorated space for a catered barbecue dinner and flower pot painting project. The spirit of spring and celebration filled the air as the group muched, laughed, and sang. Students decorated flower pots after enjoying dinner and filled them with dirt and seeds of their choice – flowers, herbs or sweet basil. The activity resulted in dozens of unique and cheerful pots displaying a variety of designs and messages!

The evening, organized by LCW student and Israel Advocacy Project Event Coordinator, Layah Schreiber and Director of Student Programming, Amy Gross, closed with a rousing Dvar Torah given by Rivka Malka Swartz, '14.
