Voices of Women for Peace Quilt Service

The Voices of Women for Peace Quilt Service was a public presentation of a quilt with the voices of young women and girls who have been impacted by conflict and the global military industrial complex. The quilting project was led by artist Kathrin Winkler, followed by the marriage vows of Angel Summer and Jade Deluca.
