Connecting Youth to the Arts: The Planting Peace Program
Youth create individual and collective multi-media art and explore what they have learned about peace within, between, and among and hang up their art at UFM to create a youth community peace gallery. Youth write poetry to accompany their individual and collective art pieces and do a poetry reading in the community.

This program is exclusively designed to create a community of peacemakers to empower youth and develop their social, emotional, and community awareness skills. This series is offered on a weekly basis, and youth can sign up for one week or all 10 weeks depending on their interests and scheduling availability. Youth learn art basics using different artistic mediums while communicating about peace in their communities. Youth will have opportunities to work individually and together on project-based learning including murals, textiles, and mixed media. Youth need to wear clothing they can get dirty in! All classes are held at UFM's Solar Addition in our Greenhouse or Peacebuilding Room, 1221 Thurston St.
Fee: $75.00
