Seattle Center For Peace
Educational, Entertaining Programs to Promote Peace.

The Seattle Center For Peace will give existing programs for peace a visible, central presence in the greater Seattle community.

The Seattle Center For Peace will create and develop educational & interactive programs, exhibits and web site to promote peace.

Together these intentions will:

• Build bridges for peace
• Offer accessible educational tools for peace
• Support a language for peace
• Promote practices for peace
• Connect people and groups for peace
• Serve as an inspirational resource for peace

Establishing the Seattle Center For Peace advances the institutionalization of peace that is taking place at the local, regional, national and international levels.

Michael Nagler, points the way in The Search For A Nonviolent Future:

"The famed ethologist Konrad Lorenz -- not a wild-eyed idealist but a distinguished scientist -- decided after extensive scientific investigation that war is not programmed by nature. "Modern war has become an institution, and…being an institution, can be abolished." What I am saying here is the converse, and the missing practical component to what Lorenz, like Margaret Mead and so many others, has discovered: peace can be institutionalized. When it is, then people will be willing to send war on its well-deserved way to the cabinet of bad memories."
