Peace – The Exhibition explores the events and issues that have propelled Canadians to act for peace.
What is peace and how do you make it? Peace – The Exhibition reveals that the answers are evolving and open to discussion. For the first time in one place, artifacts, multi-media and stories are combined to weave the long, rich, and diverse history of peace advocacy in Canada. From the ancient and still standing peace of the Iroquois Confederacy to the range of Canada’s responses to Afghanistan, peace provokes passions, prompts Canadians to make choices, and propels them to take action.
