100 Offerings Of Peace

It is our belief that in the times we are living in, we must consider why big ideas like โ€˜peaceโ€™ and โ€˜peacebuildingโ€™ matter. โ€˜Peaceโ€™ is more than just the calm, internal pleasure we might feel when we enjoy a great book on a warm summer day and it is more than its dictionary definition โ€“ โ€œthe opposite of violence or war.โ€ At The Peace Studio, we believe that peace is about the small, daily actions we choose to take to show compassion, kindness and love towards others. Itโ€™s about pursuing justice, protecting human rights, and helping those facing hardship, oppression or other adversity.

In 2020, The Peace Studio commissioned creatives to generate peace offerings in response to the isolating COVID-19 pandemic. Every work commissioned incorporated a digital action, such as signing petitions, practicing mindfulness exercises, donating online to justice initiatives, or getting involved in local legislative activity that viewers could take to start building peace in challenging times.
