My Nonprofit Reviews

Missing Peace Art Space in Dayton, Ohio has become the hub for compassion, peace and multi-cultural community understanding. Led by the inspirational Gabriela Pickett, the Missing Peace Art Space has provided a foundation for enhanced awareness of global inequities, pain and suffering - but handled through the medium of art. This allows difficult subjects to be presented on a personal level, somewhat gently, allowing the viewer to absorb and personalize difficult issues at their own pace.

My favorite activity led by Missing Peace is the annual Dia de los Muertos event! Pulling together many local volunteers from the arts, music, and educational community, Missing Peace created an incredible event - bringing this beautiful tradition to the people of a small city in the midwestern United States! Doing this with our local Mexican immigrant community, allowing some of our newest residents to share their culture with us, has had a tremendous impact in bridging what may have seemed to be a tremendous cultural divide.

Missing Peace Art Space has become a vital resource in our community -- making a tremendous difference through passion for compassion.
