Peace Village

Sojourners Art Journals Group
Calgary, Alberta, Canada

“We are a group of adult women who participate in a round-robin art journaling group. The purpose is to explore the idea that art is and should be an integral part of all our lives, both individually and as a community. Your project is an opportunity for us to move this to a broader level. We are delighted to participate.

“This year our group embraced the Global Art Project with creation of an actual village. Each home is based on a similar structure and yet is unique due to colour pattern and the interior decorations, just as human beings are similar and yet so unique. We thrive when we work together and treat each other with respect, compassion and dignity. It is a pleasure to be involved with this initiative and work toward these values.”
