Enjoy all aspects of the Integrative Arts Activities with the World Wide Art Project and Uniting US!  Jolanda Aucott's gender neutral portrait design is the basis for 80 participants to present the artist representation of "Love and Peace" and "Fear and War" on two small canvas. Participant's canvas are reassembled to create two 69"x84" portraits representing the collective group's expression.  The resulting Uniting the World Through Art portraits are than exhibited in Uniting US public gallery locations for artists, friends, and communities to enjoy.   The British Embassy Uniting the World Through Art portraits are currently being relocated for the second public exhibit.  The second series of portraits are about to get underway and will be unveiled in the London Uniting the World Through Art exhibit.
