English term or phrase: It's all about us
A phrase to be used on a banner for a travel group of senior citizens
Catherine
Latin translation:Omnia de Nobis
Explanation:
A short, nice way to say it.

OMNIA = Everything / All
DE NOS = About us (concerning us, ablative construction).

I would avoid a verbal construction for a slogan...

Hope it helps you!

With emphasis on 'us'. Otherwise, simply 'tota res de nobis est' or as Flavio suggests.
