About the Event
Unity Through Creativity, the Centennial Museum, The Women’s and Gender Studies Center, the Dance and Theater Department and the Sociology Departments of UTEP (these all need links) invite YOU to participant El Paso's International Day of Peace Symposium. Young people ages 13 and up are welcome.
The Symposium will be part of over 5000 nationwide gatherings for this year’s UN’s Global Peace Day, whose theme is “Cultivating a Culture of Peace.” As in past years, we will focus on Peace Within, Peace With Each Other and Peace with the Earth. The goal is to build and strengthen networks of local and national peace practitioners. We seek to achieve this end by fostering an Interactive and Creative Time featuring YOU - the participants! There will be Round Table discussions, local organization panels, live-streamed Speakers, Collaborative Art-making and Cultural Celebrations.
