The banner unifies over 2,000 children's paintings into one singular image of hope for the world.

From a distance, the individual paintings for the 100 ft long x 18 ft high rainbow. When viewed close-up; however, each child's painting, name, age, teacher and school is clearly identifiable. This visual metaphor expresses the vital significance of each individual in a balanced, colorful and diverse world.

The rainbow symbolizes hope for a world in which a living harmony is created by cherishing the identity of each individual - recognizing that our differences enrich rather than threaten us.
