Do it on
your own -- Family and friends peace-page Session
If you do not have a space to host a public event, you can host an informal
response-page session with friends and family. Simply contact the OBPP
and we will send you some blank pages for your group to write or draw
their responses onto. We will try to guide you through the process from
afar. Send the completed pages back to the OBPP, and volunteers will
sew them into the peace book.
An OBPP
full day Papermaking Marathon:
A full day of fun with papermaking, pulp painting and stencil making.
Equipment and materials included.
Are you a papermaker? Please consider offering a batch of handmade paper
for your communities’ peace-pages or for other communities. Contact
OBPP for how to start.
