The Peace Museum

(1/1/1998-8/30/2000)

Chicago's Peace Museum, founded in 1981, was a museum dedicated to spotlighting global movements for peace, as well as the social and physical costs of violence. This project attempted to measure the effectiveness of the museum's Drive-by Peace program.

A internal report, "Drive-By Peace Evaluation," was completed.
