Saint Louis Story Stitchers Artists Collective presents Peace in the Prairie, an original presentation exploring the concepts of peace and violence, juxtaposing urban life as experienced by African American people living in the city of St. Louis, Missouri and the state’s endangered prairie lands.
Is the path towards peace through Missouri’s native prairies?
Artists took a day trip from St. Louis, Missouri to explore a cave at Onondaga Cave State Park in Leasburg, MO and the natural beauty of the landscape on a rainy summer day on July 27, 2024.
