Earth Charter - Arts Award 10-8-2016

On October 8th, 2016 Arts For Earth Foundation received an important award.  Important to us because it acknowledges the goals of our mission.  We were given the Earth Charter and the Arts Award.  We are kindred spirits with the Citizens For Peaceful Resolution who sponsored the Ventura event.
     The Earth Charter is a treaty of ideals supported around the world by environmentalists and humanitarians. ( http://earthcharter.org/discover/download-the-charter ) The Earth Summit gathers each year to acknowledge groups like ours who support these ideals.  We are proud to receive this arts award and especially proud because this is the first year for this new category to be acknowledged by the Earth Summit.
