Art For Peace In The Middle East

Art For Peace In The Middle East was an artist led project that supported peace, dialogue and equality projects for Palestinian, Arab and Israeli people. It was set up by two female artists - Marice Cumber and Sarah Lightman.

The first Art For Peace In The Middle East project was an online art fundraiser for Mothers Call  - a joint initiative of two women-led grass roots peace initiatives in Palestine and Israel -   Women of The Sun in Palestine and Women Wage Peace in Israel (2023)
