Have you made a Peace Dove yet? 🕊️✨

Visitors from all corners of the world have been coming together to help create this mass participation artwork, with more than 3000 doves already made and counting!

We’ve loved seeing the care and thought that has gone into each peace dove - from illustrations to poems, reflections on what peace means, and messages of hope - your contributions will help bring this artwork to life.

On your next visit to our heritage site, why not stop by one of our Peace Dove making stations in the Painted Hall or the Chapel, leave a message of peace, and come back to see it become part of this showstopping installation.
