Nakashima Foundation For Peace
Event Location
New Hope, PA 18938
The Foundation was originally created in 1984 to collect funds to build Altars of Peace around the world, “small points of light encircling the globe.” However, in searching for spaces that would welcome people of all faiths, races and nationalities, it became apparent that the environments themselves, as well as programs surrounding the Peace Altar-Tables should be included in its mission.
After Marion Nakashima’s passing in 2004, Kevin and Mira realized that preservation, protection, and perpetuation of the Nakashima Legacy means preserving the Nakashima buildings in New Hope and their contents for future generations, and asked the Foundation to shoulder this responsibility as well. Although the expense of maintenance has so far been borne by the Nakashima furniture business, the Foundation will play a crucial role in safe keeping the Nakashima Legacy and will need financial support to do so.
