Greetings from Jerusalem Avenue is a site-specific artwork in the form of a life-size artificial date palm. It was designed by Polish artist Joanna Rajkowska, and is located on the Charles de Gaulle Roundabout, where Jerusalem Avenue intersects with Nowy Świat street in the Polish capital of Warsaw. It was erected on December 12, 2002.

The work was intended by Rajkowska to draw attention to "the absence of the Jewish community in Poland" by highlighting and challenging "the invisibility of the street’s name." The project was thus intended as a social experiment, an anti-monument that metaphorically brings the “vanished Jews back into the landscape of contemporary Poland”.
