The Valentine Peace Project is Amsterdam
AMPer Federico Hewson's public participation
project, and AMP's entry into World
Community Arts Day (WCAD happens on 17
February 2008)! Fighting against the
commodification of love and reimaging
Valentine's Day as a broader
statement for love and peace, this is about
taking creativity to the streets! Dozens of
poems by published poets, the community at
large, and schoolchildren on the themes of
peace are attached to hundreds of varied
flowers to distribute on the subways,
streets, and public gathering places.
Encouraging school workshops on conflict
resolution and the history of peacemakers,
the VPP also aims to draw attention to the
work done by a myriad of peace and peace
education organizations. Participate on
February 14th in your own way!

Kim Chandler, also known as Lokimee (though
she is living a life that is anything but low
key), is a writer, editor, radio host, poet,
screenwriter, playwright, performance artist,
actress, producer and more. Born in the UK
and raised in the Caribbean and Canada, she
now lives in Amsterdam, while traveling as
much as possible!
A 'career path' that led her to try her hand at such adventures as forest fire fighting (You can Yukon!) and having her own theatre company in London, somehow led her to the position of Arts and Entertainment Editor of a national newspaper in Holland, which she made the most out of for almost three years. Currently Kim is a member of the English Breakfast Radio Show, Editor of Global Vision and Global Vision Africa Magazines, contributing writer to Velocity Magazine, continues to do theatre and poetry performances and voice over work, and is a featured blogger on AMP. She's currently working on a performance piece to be toured nationally this fall - producing it may, quite possibly, make Kim crazy - but at least her freak will be filmed! |
