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!

#22 Punahou School

Highschool & Kindergarten Students
Honolulu, Hawaii
2006-2007

Teacher Kathleen Thomas shares:
We had a wonderful time creating our kindness mural. We combined a class of kindergarteners with a class of 12th graders. The thigh school students came with picture books about kindness. The groups read about and discussed kindness as revealed in the literature. The kids brainstormed what they wanted the canvas mural to look like. Everyone agreed that is should include the Hawaiian word “Aloha”. Aloha means hello, goodbye, and love.
