Details

Pittsburgh Builds Bridges is a social movement that encourages diversity, inclusion, and connection within the community. After her son experienced bullying at a young age, Ebtehal began teaching acceptance and love through painting to youth and adults across Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh Builds Bridges has curated events that have brought together over 4,000 children and adults to create murals that embody unison and harmony and discuss how to build bridges in their communities. All supplies will be provided!

Why PeaceWeek:
Peacebuilding is not a far away concept that only applies to diplomats. Peacebuilding starts with you, with me, within our communities. Amidst the humanitarian crises impacting the world, this country, and our diverse communities, the Peacebuilding week program seeks to create spaces where the CMU community can engage with topics such as trauma, community, and healing, and the steps we can take to contribute to peacebuilding. Join us for a week of powerful conversations exploring how we can all build a more peaceful world through listening, faith, and building just communities.
