Artists for Peace 2005

Peace is not just an absence of violence or war. It is also a progress towards health, a reduction of poverty, and environmental sustainability. When individuals and groups of all ages become more aware of the effects of that human activity and attitude has on peace issues, a difference to the future health of our land and ourselves can be made. A critical avenue to healing is a journey into gaining a better understanding about our source of life, getting a grip on how the attitudes, values and customs of man must change. It is time for mankind to write the best new chapters of its future that it possibly can. 

In a response to a year marked with unprecedented destruction from our most creative communicator, earth, a number of artists banded together to promote environmental sensitivity. Each feel a strong earth connection and unite in a desire to promote thought about the interplay between environment and man, using different media and perspectives to provoke discourse, understanding, and healing. Inside this year's (2005) Artists for Peace project are impromptu live performance, writing, prose, poetry and images by professional and non-professional writers and artists.
