The sixth annual Peace Kids to the Rescue art show and silent auction will be held from 5:30 to 8 p.m., September 6, 2024, at the Millersville University Ware Center in downtown Lancaster. The event will feature approximately 52 pieces of art donated by youth 6 to 19 years old, with all proceeds from the silent auction benefiting Church World Services and the Arch Street Center. The mission is to empower youth to use their creativity and compassion to help the marginalized in their communities. To date, the show has raised more than $22,000 for local charities.

In addition to the silent auction, this year’s show will feature Peace Kids to the Rescue mugs, stickers and notecard sets. University of Kabul artist Roohafza Emami will also have her inaugural exhibit—Flowers Need Time to Bloom—in the Regitz Gallery, in the rear gallery of the Ware Center.
