    Celebration of United Nations'  World InterFaith Harmony Week  challenges us to make use of the power of art and music. 17 artists contribute their art works- paintings by acrylics and oil, drawings by charcoal,  illustrative demonstrations and use of materials from nature-   to this second exhibition at the Kolding Library during this  global observance of WIFHW 2020. Kolding, as a town, houses many local  libraries in different schools and other institutions, but Kolding Library  is the Main Library, the center meeting place for study and learning. It has been an honor to be allowed to do art exhibition here. The mayor, Jørn Pedersen, has accepted our invitation to open the Exhibition. The Philippine Singing Group has said yes to our invitation to  sing  during this event, choosing songs that speak of the principles behind the UN adoption of WIFHW. The Art Exhibition  invites people, who use the library, to learn about this global observance, its intentions and its relevant message for our context as a community of  peoples in diversity. And the visits to see and examine this exhibition for reflection will continue towards the end of February.
