ONE PEACE began five years ago to bring people together to
celebrate the UN International Day of Peace. The planning committee
collaborated on the ONE PEACE mission: to inspire and motivate people to come
together as ONE human family to generate inner peace and create a boundless
world landscape of compassion, hope, love and PEACE.
Visitors will view the Peace Pals International Art Exhibit
showing children's art from 65 countries. This colorful display expresses the
vision "May Peace Prevail on Earth" from young people around the
world.
There will be hands on activities for children including
coloring a peace picture and decorating a peace sign. Citizens for Peace members will be reading to
children from the many books on peace from the Children’s Peace Collection
donated to the library.
Informational tables will be set up in the atrium. The United Nations Association of Greater
Detroit; The Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom; Swords into
Plowshares Peace Gallery; and the Citizens for Peace will have displays and
unique items for sale.
ONE PEACE 2012 will be an opportunity to celebrate peace
through art, music, stories, activities, information sharing, and more! There will be something for families, friends,
neighbors, teachers, students, and everyone desiring a more peaceful world.
