ABOUT THE SHOW
|
LELA International proudly announces its Expressions of Peace exhibition, held simultaneously at Makery Gallery in Los Angeles (for the third year) and in Nagasaki, Japan (for the 46th year) throughout August 2025.
This exhibition fosters dialogue and a shared commitment to peace across all nations and communities while also remembering the 80th anniversary of the atomic bombing in Japan.
This year’s theme, Expressions of Peace, invites artists to share their vision and creative interpretation of peace through art.
We warmly welcome artists of all ages to participate and express their ideas in any artistic form that reflects their vision of peace.
Please review the submission guidelines carefully, and feel free to reach out with any questions. We look forward to your participation in this meaningful exhibition.
