Our vision is to unite people around the world through one of the most powerful symbols of peace and non-violence - the Knotted Gun sculpture.
Nearly a billion people have seen the sculpture, with an estimated 100 million new viewers each year. Today, it stands in 30 prestigious locations worldwide, serving as a universal reminder that peace is possible.
City for Peace is a transformative initiative that combines art and education to promote non-violence in communities. In partnership with cities, governments, universities, corporate sponsors, and organizations, we create a strong presence through the Knotted Gun Art installations while rolling out educational programs that inspire positive change in schools and communities.
We invite cities worldwide - including yours - to take part in this movement. By placing a bronze Knotted Gun sculpture in your city center or hosting a Non-Violence exhibition featuring unique artist interpretations of the symbol, you send a clear message of peace and unity to your citizens. As a Non-Violence City, you will join a global network committed to building a more peaceful society.
Partner with us and make non-violence a visible commitment in your community.
By placing a bronze Knotted Gun sculpture in your city, you become part of a global movement for peace. As a City for Peace, you will join a network of forward-thinking communities committed to promoting non-violence and inspiring positive change. This initiative also provides opportunities to showcase your city's commitment to peace through various awareness campaigns and social media activities.
These are just some of the cities that have taken a stand for peace and non-violence, proudly displaying the iconic Knotted Gun sculpture as a symbol of their commitment to a safer, more inclusive world.
