SPCS Peace Mural Opening
- Kent
Join us for the unveiling of an original peace mural created by BzTat and Friends for the School of Peace and Conflict Studies at Kent State University. The opening of the exhibit will take place at 11:00am on Thursday, May 1, 2025. It will begin with remarks at the Center for Philanthropy and Alumni Engagement (IAB 103). Following this, the artists will reveal the mural via livestream, and light refreshments will be served in celebration of the artists. Afterward, guests can join us across Lincoln Street at the SPCS offices (McGilvrey 113) to view the mural in-person and enjoy dessert.
BzTat and Friends is an artist collective led by Canton artist Vicki Boatright and featuring students from a Stark County Educational Service Center course taught by Jay Liedel. The mural is a collaborative original design inspired by an ongoing relationship that began with an SPCS Masters-level peace education course.
This event is part of May 4th Education Committee programming and sponsored by The School of Peace & Conflict Studies at Kent State University.
