For more than thirty years, the Lions Club has promoted an international peace poster contest. Each year there is a new theme, and the contest is open to students from ages eleven to thirteen. Prizes are awarded at the international level and also at the local level.

Not only did my students enjoy the project, but I also loved seeing them make connections between the environment, artificial intelligence, and watercolor painting. The theme of last year’s contest was Peace Without Limits.
