A sukkah design competition took place at Liberty Plaza on Sunday, with the six finalists coming from around the country. Photographer Daniel Brenner captured these images.
A sukkah is a temporary hut, constructed for the week-long Jewish festival of Sukkot. It's often decorated with autumnal or harvest themes, intended to commemorate the time that God provided for the Israelites in the wilderness they inhabited after they were freed from slavery in Egypt.
The sukkahs are slated to be displayed at the Jewish Community Center from Sept. 29-Oct. 9. For more information, see the Sukkah Arbor website.
