KIDS' GUERNICA is a peace project for children through art in different places of the world to create peace paintings on huge canvases the same size as Pablo Picasso's "Guernica", 1937 (3.5 m × 7.8m), which protested against the brutality of bombing in the town of Gernika during the Spanish civil war.
The participant children expressed powerful messages of peace with their creativity and imagination, which would contribute to world peace in the 21st century.

KIDS' GUERNICA is a symbol of hope for peace.
Pablo Picasso created his masterpiece, Guernica, more than sixty years ago but the world has been still full of terror and sorrow. However, even in a desperate situation, smiling faces of innocent children can always give us a hope.
Children are always victims at war.

KIDS' GUERNICA is against any war.
