Our Mission:

​Our mission is to connect people and resources to peace initiatives locally and internationally. Our projects bridge the divide between the youth, their parents, and elders which represent the community. One life at a time we are transforming the paradigm of depression, stress, and trauma in the lives of our members. We network professional artists and enthusiasts together with leaders and organizations of all kinds, in hopes to find innovative ways to engage the public with art. Our calling is to counsel, guide, and assist our community and the people we love, as we do the work to create a more just and harmonious society. We encourage people to explore their personal goals, build healthy coping-skills, and master non-violent conflict resolution. We want every person on the planet to have peace, and it's already begun. 

What We Do:

"We are here to help develop, promote, and get exposure for local artist partners who volunteer their time as Peacemakers and give back to their communities. Our goal is to help encourage deeper self-appreciation and the appreciation others through the arts and artistic expression. We are teaching youth, their families, and elders how to better manage stress, avoid violent conflict, and create harmony in their daily lives."

The Peace Culture Club holds education, creative expression, and conflict resolution as some of its most important core principles. Our community Peace Clubs, classes, programs, and workshops are innovative because we integrate conflict resolution into an art focused engagement rich curriculum. We start out by focusing on the idea that artistry can strengthen you and your community by helping us all develop coping skills and creative critical thinking abilities.

While educating on ways to personally develop a more socially moral character and our creative abilities, we are building resilience in the individual. Next we give members professional guidance in arts appreciation, graphics design, and many other marketing and promotions modalities if needed. We are developing the ability of club members to engage their community while encouraging them to become Peacemakers. We give additional professional guidance for individuals interested in starting a career or just actively advocating for peace.

OUR VISION:
​
We are seeking the national advancement of innovative programs that counter the effects of ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences) and support communities and organizations interested in working for related causes. The Peace Culture Club places great emphasis on preventive measures to violence and intimidation in our communities. We want to produce lasting effective Peace Clubs by focusing on collaboration with well respected existing institutions and engaged excited young artists.

What are Peace Clubs

---

Peace Culture Clubs are safe spaces our members create wherever they are. There we hold our art classes, workshops and events. We develop and facilitate Peace Clubs with the collaboration of individual members, local groups, and organizations. We provide resources to gather everything you need from volunteers, featured artists, therapists, and other human resources; to things like certifications, training, and direct consulting. This supports the growth of the club, and can also offer a finical gain to the founding members in their engagement.

Our Advantages

---

We have amazing members and leadership, having deep understanding of the issues surrounding ACEs. We help members to draw from their own personal experience and personal networks to build courage and help them speak their truth. We provide people with hope and the skills to save socially and culturally deprived communities across the country. Our curriculum is designed to guide and assist with every aspect to ensure community engagement in a collaborative effort between our professionals and common people for peace.
