CHALK4PEACE: The Gatherings

CHALK4PEACE has brought thousands of CHALKSTARS together over the last 12 years to bring their messages of peace to the streets. These photos are some of the gatherings and teams that have helped us make this happen! These photos are from four continents. More and more every year!

We have so many favorite photos of CHALK4PEACE...

CHALK4PEACE maintains a photographic archive of art about peace that holds its own in the global peace movement. The peace our artists create is fleeting. It is our great fortune that sites share their photos with us to share with the world. Their pictures tell their story.

These are C4P fan faves over the years. We have thousands; these are some favorites from four continents...

CHALK4PEACE has been invited to help draw the world together at the United Nations this fall as part of the Peace Day Student Observance honoring the International Day of Peace. We will be bringing Team CHALK4PEACE into New York to create a giant symbol of peace for the young artists attending the conference September 16th to embellish with their messages of Peace, Hope and Justice for a better world. The United Nations is kind enough to provide the venue; CHALK4PEACE will create the template for expression and speak about 100 ways to say Peace...We're asking you to help Team CHALK4PEACE get to New York to "Bring the Peace" and to record the event for our documentary film: CHALK4PEACE: Drawing The World Together, which we started in Ferguson, Missouri last year. Your donation is tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law and be made through our secure Pay Pal account below:

For CHALK4PEACE, this is chance of a lifetime to share our practice of peace with the nations of the world. We're in 40 countries so far. Our trip to the UN will help to spread the word- to double, maybe triple that number as a result of our efforts this fall at the United Nations. The sky is the limit... please help us get there...

CHALK4PEACE will be part of the United Nations observation of the International Day of Peace in NY on 9/16/16
