As we just entered Spring, art teacher Julie Matthews along with her students at the Anchorage Montessori School wrote “We are hard at work with our Peace Pole.  It is coming along and we are very excited about the progress. We have chosen to portray the flora and fauna of Alaska along with words in English and Inupiaq, a native language from Alaska.”

We think this might be the first Peace Pole to have the Inupiaq Language on it. Their Pole will be dedicated at the schools art show on April 28th, 2014 and plans are underway for it’s display on The International Day of Peace in September

There is a one room schoolhouse in Prairie and the whole school is working on the Idaho Youth Art Peace Pole. The whole school means 11 students ranging from kindergarten through eighth grade. Idaho artist and activist Jennifer Williams is taking the Idaho Youth Art Peace Pole to students around the State to each add their magic. Check back for photos and the rest of the story of the Idaho Youth Art Peace Pole.

Peace is Good
