InSpiritry Art of Peace - Tyler Poetry Anthologies

Art of Peace - Tyler is an East Texas celebration of the United Nations International Day of Peace, marked around the world each year on September 21.

Cofounded and co-directed by Anne McCrady, Art of Peace - Tyler offers arts-based events throughout the week of Day of Peace, including visual art, live music, children's activities, community gatherings, college programs, a peace meal, a peace pole installation and a living peace sign.  Passionate about the connection between poetry and peace, Anne is the contributing editor of an annual collection of peace poems that InSpiritry published each September, in conjunction with the Art of Peace - Tyler celebration.

Over the past eight years, hundreds of poets from Texas, the U.S. and around the world have submitted their work to the Art of Peace anthologies, with outstanding writing related to the annual Art of Peace Tyler themes. Anthology titles have included PeaceWords, Hunger for Peace, Intertwined, Paths to Peace - Journey to Wholeness, and Building Bridges - Making Peace, and Sowing Seeds of Peace.
