A Pittsburgh synagogue is looking for art to beautify the site of its building as the people who worshipped there continue to recover from last falls attack, one of the deadliest against the Jewish community in U.S. history .

The Tree of Life synagogue is inviting teenage artists to submit original, uplifting works that express messages of peace, love, community, hope, healing and resilience. The artwork will be placed on temporary fencing surrounding the building, which has not yet reopened for worship services.

The project, dubbed #HeartsTogether: The Art of Rebuilding, seeks to transform the temporarily vacant and dismal site into a thing of beauty.

It will reflect the strength and positivity that well-wishers shared with us in our darkest days, the synagogue wrote on the projects website . It is one way we are beginning to give back.
