The Dove Project

The dove is a timeless universal symbol of peace. I am making glass doves and donating them to places where violence has shattered innocent lives.

I see the arctic tern as a symbol of world peace. Each tern traverses the entire earth and many travel more than a million miles in a lifetime. They see no borders. I am making glass arctic terns and donating them to organizations that are committed to international peace work.

Glass is fragile and can be shattered in a moment.

It is also strong. Kept safe, glass can last forever.

Please contact me

if you have a suggestion for a place where a dove or arctic tern would be a welcome gift.
