Art Gallery:
CALLING all kids to SUBMIT an art piece (in digital format) to be featured in Our Shoresh Art Gallery. The central theme of your art work is Pomegranates and it could be a collage piece/pottery/painting. Deadline: 15 December 2020
Pomegranates are in abundance during the time of the Fall feasts in Israel; a symbol of Rosh Hashanah and the holiday season. They are on greeting cards, ceramic ornaments, beautiful materials – everywhere! They are also dangling plentifully from trees in the fields. They are ripe and ready, bursting to tell a story.
Pomegranates are a very unusual fruit in that we usually eat the flesh of the fruit and either don’t notice the seeds, or discard them if we can. But with pomegranates, there is no flesh – only seeds.
Rabbis have said that the fact that there is no flesh, only seeds, speaks of the blessings and commandments of God – they are not for our own selfish, fleshly desires, but for blessing others because once flesh is gone, it has gone forever, but when a seed dies, it produces a whole load of new life.
