Where Art Meets the Garden…
What is a Peace Pole?
Peace Poles are not just art poles. They are a belief. A statement. A commitment.
World Peace Prayer Society started the Peace Pole Project, and the poles have become the most prominent international symbol of peace. Some are made from stone, while others are made from reclaimed wood. They have been placed in war zones and others have been used to honor acts of great kindness.
Peace Poles are placed to honor humanity, to remember that goodness comes from acts of kindness and that peace comes from goodness. They tell a story of hope. They act as a daily reminder to strive to make the world a better place.
So, next time you see a Peace Pole, remember that it symbolizes kindness, hope, and, most of all, peace.
