This sculpture won a competition for American and Israeli artists in 1988. It now graces the Forbes Ave entrance to the the Jewish Community Center.

A Hanukkiyah or Hanukkah Menorah is used during the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah (or Chanukah), which celebrates the miracle of when one day’s worth of oil lasted for eight days.
