WORLD WHEEL, GLOBAL PEACE THROUGH THE ARTS is an artistic forum for global understanding consisting of environmental stone sculptures, performance events, nature reserves, and wisdom centers circling the globe. By working through the arts with local artists, performers and community, founding director Vijali Hamilton addresses the local community’s personal, spiritual, social, and environmental concerns. The project works toward global peace by developing awareness of community and the notion of world family. You are invited to listen to a recent (2016) Vijali interview,  explaining the World Wheel Journey on a Santa Fe-based radio show, “Living Jucy,” hosted by Rhea Goodman. Interview with Rhea Goodman Â

Sample Newsletter:Â Earth Day
Dear World Family,
Indeed we are one family striving to live together in our one home –the Earth. Never before have we so clearly experienced how the actions of every person affects our entire planet. My prayer for this day, our global Earth Day, is for all of us to see clearly the interconnection of all life and to always remember this in our hearts, mind and actions. Last month I just returned from a time of living with my minstrel Baul family in West Bengal, India. I met the Bauls in 1990, when I first started my World Wheel Project of circling the planet creating environmental stone sculpture and community theater. My first turn of this wheel was to go through 12 countries on the 35th parallel, to establish a world family of peace. read more…
May we live the interconnection of all life.
Dear World Family,
I am happy to say that my feature film of the World Wheel, which is just that journey of love, is now avialable on YouTube (see below). It is dedicated to all those who have contributed their time, creativity and support during these (almost) thirty years of global work.
