I heard about the call because I have been a member since 2009. You must become a member to participate in this call; membership is free, just complete a profile at TheWhole9.com. (my profile for fun and just another sample of a profile: http://www.thewhole9.com/tinari/#/0|0/)

the Peace project is an art benefit based on the notion that "through creativity and community, we can change the world".

Deadline to submit your Peace project with $10 is 8pm Pacific Standard Time 1 September 2014.

Results announced by 12 September 2014.

Additional awards range from $200 in paints to $1,000 Cash.

The following is an excerpt from the bottom of the Peace project GUIDELINES page (above link):

"EMPOWERED PARTICIPATION

Both The Peace Project and The Whole 9 are conceived upon the philosophy of inclusion -- encouraging people from all cultures, religions, and creative walks of life, to participate, connect, share resources, and help find solutions for a better world. We will gladly waive the fee for all artists (especially artists outside of North America) that want to participate but are unable to use PayPal or pay the submission fee. Please follow the submission instructions and when you get to the payment page, log out and send an email [e-mail] and we will post your submission. If you would like to get involved in The Peace Project beyond submitting your art, please click here to contact us."
