Imagine Peace Paint-In
IMAGINE PEACE PAINT-IN, sounds really good!
Right now, there are many people who are trying to do something with IMAGINE PEACE - make their own posters, own buttons, and pass it around in their own schools, etc. I think it will be very good to see Denver doing it in style - An event in the Park!
...Please write to us and tell us how it went with photos and stories and we will publish them on the IMAGINE PEACE website.
lots of love and good luck!

Imagine.....
Hundreds of people gathered in Civic Center Park to paint, to celebrate art, to hear music, and to support peace.
Imagine....
Artists...professionals, amateurs, adults, children, students and the biggest names in the Denver art scene.... all together for one day to paint in the park.
Imagine....
Bands and DJs supplying a musical backdrop featuring songs by John Lennon, the Beatles and songs about peace.
Imagine...
Peace organizations operating on local, national and international levels... groups targeting domestic violence, gang violence, and international war... all represented in one place, educating and accepting donations.
Imagine...
A day of art, music and inspiration that you'll never forget... free to all, on John Lennon's birthday.
