It is our hope that through the Pinwheels for Peace project, we can make a public visual statement about their feelings about peace, tolerance, cooperation, harmony, unity and, in some way, maybe, awaken the public and let them know what the next generation is thinking. Peace can take on a different meaning, but, in the end, it all comes down to a simple definition: a state of calm and serenity, with no anxiety, the absence of violence, freedom from conflict or disagreement among people or groups of people in our home, in our schools, in our community and in our world!
