UUCC Peace Dove Banners

This is the seventh year UUCC has displayed member-created Peace Dove banners during winter holidays. In 2018, Lynne Higgins called for members talented in fabric art to create dove-themed banners. Lynne recommended a standard size and the artists used their own inspiration to design the banners. The results are alcoves filled with holiday beauty with a meaningful message. This year, we present six of those banners.

The banners displayed this year are created by Lynne Higgins, Jen Horning, Leslie O'Rear, Diana Solomon, and Leila and Tori Rose. The banner shown above is It is in Your Hands by Diana Solomon.

Expanding the American Story:
