Peace by Piece is a community-supported art project that uses flatbed and digital knitting machines to create a collaborative textile installation, made by many hands, united in purpose.

Please join us September 3 for a reception and gallery talk! Peace by Piece is a collaborative textile project led by faculty in Belmont University’s O’More College of Architecture and Design, bringing together students, artists, and community members to explore connection, creativity, and the diversity of God’s creation through knitting. Combining traditional craft with digital and flatbed knitting technologies, the exhibit presents communal works assembled from individual contributions alongside process documentation, highlighting the intersections of faith, art, and making as a practice of care and collective belonging. This project was supported by generous funding from the Creative Arts Collective for Christian Life and Faith.

The exhibit is on view in the Leu Gallery from August 19 – October 02, and this reception event runs from 4-6pm.
