Dear Campers,

Welcome to Creativity for Peace!

Our summer camp program brings young women from Israel and Palestine to a beautiful and peaceful setting, where communication and leadership are supported. As a camper, you will have daily opportunities for dialogue, art-making, lots of fun, and the beginning of new friendships.

Creativity for Peace’s camp is held high in the Sangre de Cristo mountains of northern New Mexico, near the state capital of Santa Fe, a small city known for its Native American and Spanish heritage, clear blue skies and soaring landscapes, as well as art, architecture, and cuisine.

While activities at camp are varied, there is a special emphasis on art. Your artmaking projects may include drawing, painting, printmaking, sculpture, photography, and much more. We invite you to join us for an exceptional three weeks of exploration and discovery.

Our 2012 camp dates are 19 July – 10 August. The deadline for applying is December 15, 2011. All application instructions and forms are included in this section of our website. For further information, contact

As a Creativity for Peace camper, you join a growing group of young women in the Middle East who share a vision of building a future based on compassion and peace. After camp, you will have regular opportunities to continue and deepen your new friendships. You will also become eligible for our Young Leader program.

We hope you will join us!

Dottie Indyke, Executive Director
