2020 Multifaith Calendar - 
Reimagining Peace and Harmony

Proudly celebrating its 34^th year, the 2020 Multifaith Calendar’s theme is ‘Reimagining Peace and Harmony.’

Published by the Multifaith Action Society (MAS), the Multifaith Calendar (MFC) is a unique educational resource that facilitates understanding of religious occasions and festivals integral to a wide spectrum of cultural and faith communities.

The 12 month, full-sized wall Multifaith Calendar offers insight into the world's major faiths - a window that gives not only accurate information on each of the major holidays and festivals, including their dates and significance, but detailed historical information of these faiths and their relationship to time –
giving us a better understanding of many varied cultures. 

The MFC is also a carefully selected collection of art work. Each year a theme is chosen and artists from across North America as well as Internationally submit art for consideration. We are proud to say that these images are original works from a wide variety of visual artists.

Reimagining Peace and Harmony...    Who does not want world peace and harmony in their lives? It is an almost universal desire. But today, the world seems to be moving away from this ideal.

What do you think peace looks like? Is it different from harmony? We all have moments of peace. We can in fact take a snap shot of the moment where we felt peace, but then it seems the moment moves away from us.

Harmony is a little more fluid. It is not just one thing or one moment. Harmony is often created when many notes or many things come together in a new way and create a feeling.

The 2020 edition offers the opportunity to reflect on reimagining these two precious commodities in today’s world. Enjoy!

The 2020 Multifaith Calendar is devoted to Reimagining Peace and Harmony. All our artists submitted works based on this rich theme. And the variety of subjects and techniques is no less than inspirational.

 2020 MFC cover artist: Anan Joe : 'Opening'

"As I observed intricate patterns of tree branches, it reminded me of complexity of our microcosmic and macrocosmic world. This vivid image of nature always teach us something very important-that is ‘interconnectedness’ of our beings. With deep awareness of this interconnectedness, there we can finally embrace peace and harmony with each other."
