Experience Everyday Peace at L’Auberge de Sedona

This year, September 21st, marks the 40th Anniversary of the International Day of Peace. Established by the United Nations, Peace Day provides a globally shared date for all humanity to commit to Peace above all differences, and to contribute to building a Culture of Peace. In 2012, Sedona was honored to receive a proclamation from the UN becoming the 35th International City of Peace.

Inspired by Peace Day, Goldenstein Gallery has created the annual Everyday Peace art exhibit September 3rd-30th that supports peace through the arts and carries the intention of inspiring peace everyday through paintings and sculpture.

“I believe all of our artists’ pieces have a peaceful intention that is realized by the artists as they create, and by the viewer when they experience the piece. In this way art is very healing.” – Linda Goldenstein
