What is the Peace Fair?

The Peace Fair is dedicated to promoting harmony in the home, the community, the environment, and the world.  The Fair provides a comfortable family-friendly atmosphere in which adults and children can learn about how others promote peaceful relations in their organizations and their own lives.  The Fair is nonsectarian and nonpartisan, and seeks to attract people of all beliefs from all walks of life.  When you attend the Fair, you will enjoy:
