Conceived, funded and facilitated by the Jewish American Society for Historic Preservation, in cooperation with the World Zionist Organization, the City of Netanya, and noted Jerusalem sculptor Sam Philipe, a major interpretive memorial to the U.N. 1947 Partition Resolution was dedicated on November 29. The memorial commemorates the central birthing event of the modern State of Israel. It is the visible Kesher between Galut and Israel then, today and for tomorrow.
