Kids' Guernica at 1st Primary School of Istiaia in Evia, Greece
May, 2019
We read about the Kids Guernica Art Project 4 months ago and the Parents' Association of 1st Primary School of Istiaia in Evia, Greece decided to organise workshops in order to create a Guernica size painting.
We discussed what peace is and the poem "Peace" written by the famous greek poet Yannis Ritsos in 1953 served as an inspiration. Twenty-two pupils from 5 to 13 yeras old created the painting working together as a team outside the classroom. Painting and talking about peace and how our world can become better was an unforgettable experience for us all!

The Second Kids' Guernica at Kitakawasoe Elementary School, Japan
January 04, 2019 The second Kids’ Guernica painting was
created by the sixth grade pupils of Kitakawasoe Elementary School in
Saga-city, Japan last year. They appreciated the first Kids’ Guernica painting
of their school. Then, they decided to make their own Kids’ Guernica to show
many people to express the importance of peace and the tragedy of war. Each of
them gave his/her own idea of their peace painting and discussed in detail to
realize their images. They committed themselves to complete the painting. After
finishing it, it was displayed at their school gym to show many people.

Kids' Guernica in Umm El Fahm, Israel
December 30, 2018 The Umm El Fahm Art Gallery, hosted artist Raymond Watson and a group of young people from the Arab Israeli town of Umm El Fahm, to create their 'Our World' Guernica.
Umm El Fahm, Kids Guernika, (Israel) was completed with a great and creative group of local young people...as is clearly illustrated by the fantastic full scale image that they produced. Their painting references Picasso's famous Guernica anti war painting with bunting style flags. The group then created their own solar system and illustrated each planet with their bright hopes. Special thanks to assistants Yasmin, Angham and Bian; and of course all at the Umm El Fahm Art Gallery, for hosting the project.
