on paper. Each artist colored a peace dove puppet to visually express what peace meant to them. Puppets were assembled, and on the International Day of Peace, students walked in a parade, waving their doves in recognition of this special day. The International Day of Peace provides an opportunity for individuals, organizations, and nations to create practical acts of peace on a shared date. In 2002, the United Nations General Assembly officially declared September 21 as that date. This

Puppets for Peace art installation project is a way to help students make a non-political public visual statement regarding their feelings about war, peace, bullying, tolerance, cooperation, harmony, and unity. Peace can take on many different meanings. For children, the meaning may be as simple and beautiful as a hug, a pet to cuddle, rainbows, or having a safe place to live. Central School’s wish is that the students’ peace doves will spread positive thoughts of peace

throughout South Berwick, the surrounding towns, the country, and the world!
