SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Peace Through Understanding is a multi-faceted, congregation-based project designed to promote multicultural awareness of different religions and cultures through the use of facilitated dialogue, music, literature, art and poetry. The experiential nature of the program was designed to sow seeds of curiosity about difference by showcasing the often-overlooked artistic heritage of each culture. The goal was to address cultural misconceptions which often generate fear and bias and to broaden understanding of and compassion for people of different religions and cultures.
