Our Wish for Peace

Louis Brier Home and Hospital
2018

Our Wish For Peace is an art installation created in collaboration with staff, families, and residents of Louis Brier Home and Hospital. Community Artist Charlotte Spafford created hundreds of paper doves and invited community members to write their wish for peace on the doves. These doves were then suspended in various public spaces throughout the home, including the main entrance, the upstairs lobby, and the bistro. Charlotte also lead a workshop for residents in which they discussed and brainstormed how peace impacts our lives and what we can do as individuals to bring more peace to the world. This installation was done in celebration of Jewish Heritage Month.
