In honor of Ngawang Sungrab Phagyab Rinpoche's visit to the Windisch-Hunt Gallery (2911 Grand Ave) tonight, Oct. 28, Peace Flags have been installed, presented by Miami artist and educator Joseph Lawrence Vasile, which are part of his “Peace Flags in the Wind” Tour.
J.L. Vasile’s peace flags have traveled across the country starting here in Miami at the "Jade Buddha for Universal Peace" and making stops at the Jacqus Marqauis Museum of Tibetan Art, which is the oldest Tibetian Museum in the United States. The Flags were displayed at the Rosa Parks Museum during the "Ghandi, King and Ikeda, A Legacy of Building Peace" exhibit where a workshop was held for the public in Montgomery, Alabama.
The peace flags where were created at the Rosa Parks workshop will be unveiled at the Windish-Hunt Gallery tonight.
People ranging from 8 months to 101 years old have created flags for the exhibit. On Nov. 6, the gallery will host a workshop for children, who will produce flags for the traveling exhibit.
