About the Mural Photo Gallery

In an effort to showcase the incredible Kindness Murals created and to further connect children throughout the world, we have posted a picture of each completed mural along with the descriptions of these murals if they were provided. We have also noted the artists responsible by name of school, group, family, or organization, the school year they were completed, and where they are in the world. This blog format invites all of our participants worldwide and visitors to our blog to see children's visions of kindness and to comment on specific murals if they choose. We hope this format will further the goal of creating global harmony through art and allow us all to envision a kind, peaceful world.
A special thank you to all of our participants. Your work and visions of kindness are a true inspiration!

“I am a girl and am 9 years old. I love kindness. I think you should use kindness to show everyone you care…I like to play with my friends and stay the night at friends’ houses. But most of all, I like hanging out with my family.”

“We came up with our idea for the mural by having everyone draw their own ideas, then picking the ones we liked best and put them on our mural.”

“I think that it is important because people need to be kinder to other people. It is also great because I think that it is so cool that our mural could bring kindness to people’s hearts. I have a tone of feeling in my heart.”
