Iraqi and American Reconciliation Project

Muslim Peacemaker Teams, IARP’s partner in Iraq, recently hosted an art show for Iraqi artist Shaima’a Saad at the Youth & Sport Najaf Center. Below are some images from the show, which over 500 people attended. This is a good example, I think, of an Iraqi artist empowered by a peace-building non-profit organization and then helping to change others’ perceptions and ideas through art.
