Opportunity for Visual Artists…
Each year, the Multifaith Action Society invites artists to submit works of art for publication in our upcoming Multifaith Calendar.
The theme for our upcoming 2021 edition is: Living Legacies
Deadline for submissions: 31 January 2020
We believe this theme is open to a wide variety of interpretations and leaves open the possibility for a rich array of artistic submissions.

What do we want to leave our children? Do we want to leave polluted air, ravaged forests, dying oceans and polluted garbage dumps? Or do we want to clean up our act and create natural beauty and wonder in every landscape. Do we want to leave a world in conflict or a world that values peace, cooperation, and respect? How do we create living legacies for our children, friends, neighbours to inherit?
Our planet is our most precious resource. It sustains us, supports us, and is our home. We need to love our home planet and honour one another so we can live happy, meaningful, fulfilled lives. Let’s think about and imagine the living legacies we could leave – so our children can walk freely in nature, grow food in their own back yards, swim in pristine oceans, and foster enduring respect and love for our communities as well as each other.
