    A Modern Prophet Flyer The top message is on an indigo-blue rectangular background that takes up the top third of the vertically rectangular image poster. Parts of the indigo-blue background are slightly lighter and are in the shape of 11 circles of varying size with the bottom and top two cut-off on those respective sides, the two circles on the center left side have line of the same color attached to them extending off the image. Written on the blue-indigo rectangle are the words "A MODERN" outlined in white block letters and the word "PROPHET" completely in white block letters in the middle of the image. Below that are smaller white block letters saying "SUNDAY, JANUARY 15, 2023" and below it in the same font is said, "8-10pm Eastern on Zoom" followed by a small white box with the letters CC in indigo blue (symbol for closed captions) and in white two hands making the hand sign for interpretation to sign language. To the left of the words is a black and white image of Rabbi Dr. Abraham Joshua Heschel (the chest upwards of a man, standing straight, with a dark suit jacket, white button down shirt, a dark tie with small white diamond patterns. He has a greying hair including a full and pointed beard and a bushy mustache, the hair on his head is wavy and thick and forms a widow's peak, it parts on the left side. His face seems calm and a little stern and he has shallow bags under his eyes, his mouth is slightly upturned, perhaps smiling slightly. He looks as though he is in his mid-late middle ages.) Below the indigo-blue part of the image is a white background with a purplish-cyan rectangular segment running through the middle. At the top of the white background are the words "The Torah and Legacy of" in small indigo-blue block letters, followed underneath by "Rabbi Dr. Abraham Joshua Heschel" in much larger bold letters of the same color and font. Below that in the same color and font is the first line is "and his Ongoing Impact on the Orthodox Community". Underneath this last line is a cyan dash followed underneath by the lines "Marking 50 YEARS Since His Passing" in the cycan block letters with the "50 YEARS" being larger and in bold. Below this is the purplish-cyan segment with SCHEDULE written in vertically in cyan block letters with horizontal indigo-blue block letters to the right listing the schedule. The First column says "8:00pm Eastern (7:00pm Central, 6:00pm Mountain, 5:00pm Pacific) Selma 1965: My Experience of The Halachic Case for Rabbi Heschel's Societal Justice Engagement. RABBI SAUL BERMAN *In conversation with* RABBI SETH WINBERG". The second column says "8:45pm Eastern (7:45pm Central, 6:45pm Mountain, 5:45pm Pacific) Timeless Torah: My Father's Teachings in My Life and Work.

Overlapping the purpleish-cyan segment and the white section beneath in an indigo-blue rectangle with white block letters are the words "Learn more and register: YCTORAH.ORG/HESCHEL". In the white section at the bottom of the flyer in cyan vertical block letters are the words "PARTNER INSTITUTIONS" followed by the logos of 20 various modern orthodox institutions that are not clearly legible due to the small scale and a slightly larger logo of YCT (Yeshivat Chovevei Torah) afterwards to the far right.
