The Peace and Conflict Studies (PACS) program at the University of Waterloo is celebrating 40 years of leadership in peace education. The innovative approach of the program allows students in many classes to explore peace in diverse and meaningful ways, including creating arts-based assignments.

Join us for a conversation with 2017 Nobel Peace Prize recipient and world-renowned nuclear ban advocate Setsuko Thurlow.

Join us for a reception celebrating the next Grebel Gallery exhibit, "Gichitwaawizi'igewin: Honouring". In this exhibit, artist Catherine Dallairere-examines the original indigenous values in animals and plant life that are vilified by contemporary Western settler culture.

During a 12-week writing and performance workshop facilitated by local professional artists and hosted at the Centre for Peace Advancement, 19 refugee and immigrant women from Waterloo Region each developed a personal narrative. They then worked collaboratively to bring their individual stories together into a cohesive presentation to be shared publicly.

Voices Together: A Celebration of Art and Music explores the complementary nature of visual art and worship in the Mennonite Church. Featuring over a dozen works of art found in Voices Together, the exhibition offers visitors a more intimate view of the art found in this new Mennonite hymnal.
