Peace Center Saturday Program

Once a month on a Saturday morning, approximately 15 children from throughout Baltimore City gather to read, play, cook, pray, sing and create amazing art! As their hands and hearts explore new ways of looking at the world, their spirits grow and develop.

Integral to each session is a theme of spiritual and character development, with practical suggestions for use at home and at school. With new life skills and art techniques the children grow in responsibility and creativity.

Each session brings a new adventure for participants. Adult and teen volunteers help to make this program a fun and safe experience. The program is based at the Episcopal Cathedral of the Incarnation in Baltimore, MD.

Creative themes enrich lives

Fabric art, clay, creative writing, dance, rhythm instruments, sculpture, song and painting techniques are all explored in our sessions. We've used our time together to interpret:

  • Psalm 148 in a 5x6 foot, yearlong quilt project
  • International art and folktales
  • Cuisine and food preparation skills from around the world
  • Individual fabric art projects
  • Dance and creative movement

And much more!

Exploring the community

Discovering our wonderful community together is essential! Field trips have taken the campers to the National Cathedral, local museums, theatres and concert performances, and a working farm, among other destinations.

The Saturday programs are free. Program costs, such as refreshments, meals, supplies, and admission fees are covered by grants and donations. Volunteers,cash and in-kind donations are always welcome. Learn more about the program. Find out how you can help.
