Why ArtPeace: Earth?
Because our Living Planet is an artpiece.
Because there is no peace without Nature.
Because creating peace requires creativity.
ArtPeace: Earth is designing a space where art supports environmental peacebuilding, and where environmental peacebuilding supports a harmonious world.
What do we do?
ArtPeace: Earth is about the power of art to spark change, reminding us that we have the agency to imagine – and create – a better world. The platform is emerging from a five-year collaboration among a global collective of creatives passionate about arts-based changemaking and environmental peacebuilding. Our work has always organically responded to situations, opportunities, and relationships; the shape that ArtPeace: Earth takes will similarly depend on who joins us and what we develop together.
We envision a variety of projects supporting artistic development, exhibition, performance, reflection, and teaching.
a few existing projects connected to the curating team:

Our exact structure is in the works…and we’d love to have you on board.
We are currently looking for:
Artists
If you’re a creator – in any medium, at any level – whose work explores intersections of nature and peace, ecology and justice, and/or sustainability and wellbeing, we want to hear from you! We expect to commission pieces; host performance and exhibition opportunities; and develop a database to connect artists with opportunities.
.
Audiences
Are you looking for art? Whether you’re looking for meaningful visuals to hang on the office wall; hands-on training for your team; creative facilitation for an event; or interdisciplinary conversations about nature, peace, and art, we’d love to partner with you.
.
Advisors
ArtPeace: Earth will only be as impactful as the people, ideas, and relationships behind it. Activists, policymakers, researchers, donors, and communities are all part of this movement – creators and changemakers in their own right. As we build capacity and structures behind ArtPeace: Earth, we are looking to form a global Advisory Board to help shape our direction and ethos.
If you’re interested in any of the above, please get in touch! Share your name, contact details, and any initial ideas or requests with artpeace.earth@gmail.com. We’ll invite you to be part of visioning dialogues – and keep you up to date as details and opportunities emerge.
Thank you for helping us create this ArtPeace!
