KKL-JNF's "Superheroes" Festival Brings Free Family Activities to Communities Across Israel This Summer

Throughout July and August, KKL-JNF will host its first "KKL-JNF Superheroes" Festival, a free summer program for families taking place in 24 cities and local councils across Israel. Open to children and parents alike, the festival will offer a variety of engaging activities centered on nature, environmental stewardship, creativity, and community. Participation is free of charge, but registration is required.
The festival will visit communities throughout the country, including Ashkelon, Be'er Sheva, Haifa, Tiberias, Yeruham, Modi'in-Maccabim-Re'ut, Ness Ziona, Acre, Katzrin, Kiryat Motzkin, Rosh HaAyin, and many more.
 
Each festival site will feature activity zones for children and families, an original live theatrical performance, eco-friendly arts and crafts workshops, interactive photo stations, and a multimedia exhibition highlighting KKL-JNF's work and impact throughout its history. Activities will include designing personalized superhero capes, creating comic books, sewing decorative pillows, woodworking with recycled materials, and interactive games focused on nature and environmental awareness. Each host community will also take part in a special collaborative project called "The City's Hero Award," during which participants will create a community art installation that will remain as a lasting gift to the local municipality.
 
Admission is free, but space at each location is limited and participation requires advance registration through the festival website. Families may reserve up to six tickets, and all venues will be fully accessible. Security procedures will be in place at each event, and visitors may be subject to routine security screening upon entry.
 
KKL-JNF Chairman Eyal Ostreinsky said: "Alongside our ongoing work to develop and strengthen Israel, KKL-JNF places great importance on promoting Zionist values and community engagement throughout the country, with a particular focus on the North and the South. The 'KKL-JNF Superheroes' Festival will provide families and children with fun, free, and accessible activities close to home, offering a welcome opportunity to relax and recharge during the summer while connecting participants to the values that guide our work – nature, environmental responsibility, Zionism, and community."
