IMAGES OF PEACE
  
As part of the “Season for Nonviolence”, January 30 – April 4, 2006, the Peace Museum will display images of peace on four 12’ X 25’ billboards in the Dayton area. The billboards, which go up February 15th, will display messages of nonviolence from famous peace advocates Dr. Martin L. King Jr., Mother Teresa, Gandhi, and Albert Einstein. They will give citizens a moment to reflect on something other than the violent images they face every day, a different way of looking at the world.
  Locations where the “Images of Peace” can be viewed are Keowee & Third, Ludlow & 5th, Gettysburg & Cornell, Smithville north of SR35.
 
In conjunction with this effort, Key Ads has graciously agreed to donate billboard space for a student contest in the Dayton City Schools. Students will be asked to create an artwork/advertisement that promotes peace and/or nonviolence. The winning entry will be displayed on a city billboard for one month. Other entries will be shown in an exposition at the Peace Museum , at a date to be set.

We have an excellent selection of books, videos and audio products related to peace, nonviolence, global issues and more. Items can be borrowed for a two week period with proper identification. Eventually our bibliography will be posted on our web site.
