Artists' Answers: Peace Postcards

Art has the power to move us deeply. Can art also promote peace?

Thoughtful artists around the world are offering their own answers to that question by participating in an interactive event sponsored by the Art Therapy Alliance and the International Art Therapy Organization: "Art Peace Sustainability". The project calls for artists to submit in postcard format work or works inspired by such questions as "Does the creative process of artmaking resolve conflict?" and "How do art, peace, and sustainability intersect?"



Go to http://www.arttherapyalliance.org/InteractiveArtEvent.html, read the questions, and then ask yourself how you might respond to the call.



You'll find instructions for how to submit your postcard(s) for peace and sustainability at the Art Therapy Alliance site and at either of the following:


IAAO: http://www.internationalarttherapy.org
