One of the activities of IJGM is a competition to design the poster/flyer that will be used to announce and publicize the event. The poster should celebrate Jewish genealogy and help promote the hobby.
This year the poster competition started earlier than usual (Wednesday, January 15) and has an earlier deadline, Wednesday, April 30, 2014. The winning entry will be announced and unveiled publicly at this year's IAJGS Conference on Jewish Genealogy, to be held in Salt Lake City from July 27–August 1, 2014. The winning artist will receive free registration to the conference. The winning flyer/poster will be available on the IAJGS Web site to all who wish to use it.
