Fannie Lou Hamer by Robert Shetterly

From the Americans Who Tell the Truth portrait series

Our gallery features art in the theme of heroism. All artworks in our commercial free, age-appropriate Gallery are contributed by professional and student artists as well as curated from art institutions around the world.

MY HERO Project seeks unique works of art by professional and student artists that celebrate the lives and courageous acts of heroes who work to promote change by positively affecting others and their communities. Completed artwork should reflect thoughtful ideas to show how the selected hero demonstrates heroic action and creates positive social change.

How can we use the Internet as a Tool for Peace and Hope?

The Internet moves information across borders, across time zones, connecting people all over the world. Now more than ever we must decide how this, our newest and most powerful communication tool, can help us achieve peace and hope for the future.

From all parts of the world, from all faiths, we hope that each one of you will consider our new ability to connect with words, images and sounds.
