"Imagine a moment frozen in time - the result of which leads to great potential in visual learning, intellectual and emotional stimulation, and development of analytical skills. Through the universal medium of photography, The Jewish Lens provides the next generation of Jews with an entry point to Jewish learning, skills development, and an opportunity to share their voice - their lens - with others." —The Jewish Lens
