"On May 17, Ukraine soldiers relinquished their defensive positions after bravely enduring a weeks-long Russian bombardment of the Azovstal factory in Mariupol. They mounted a valiant defence. Coincidentally, in 2019 the Tolerance poster exhibition (the red pin on the map below) opened only a short distance from the besieged steelworks. That venue is now destroyed." Above is a quote from May 17th, 2022, post "Tolerance Alive in Times of Hope and Sadness" on The Daily Heller by Steven Heller. You can see the post of the Tolerance Poster Show in Mariupol, Ukraine here .
THE TOLERANCE PROJECT has brought a message of social acceptance to over 400,000 people in 46 countries. Founded by artist-activist Mirko Ilić, this initiative showcases posters designed by artists from around the world. THE TOLERANCE PROJECT starts a conversation about inclusion, which can only begin with a foundation of tolerance. The show utilizes the unique power of design to remind us what we all have in common.
