As part of the Peace For All charity T-shirt project, UNIQLO partnered with the Estate of Pablo Picasso to deliver a message of peace through the "Bouquet of Friendship" T-shirt.
Picasso's “Bouquet of Friendship” portrays two hands grasping a vibrant bouquet, which the artist created for the 1958 Peace Conference in Stockholm. As a symbol of peace, “Bouquet of Friendship” encourages us to pause and consider the importance of connection and kinship in creating peace—a message communicated by Picasso through his support for the peace movement throughout his lifetime.
To further spread this message for peace, UNIQLO markets in over 10 cities around the world hosted a special art-making workshop to showcase their desire and vision for peace. This project aims to give participants a chance to think about what peace means to themselves and those around them.
“Since 2022, our Peace For All initiative has helped us support impactful projects worldwide. Events like this one give us the chance to connect global mission to local action, fostering community and creating lasting impact that extends the mission closer to home.”
- Jean Shein, Global Director of Sustainability
To celebrate the launch of the PEACE FOR ALL Picasso T-shirt in Canada, our UNIQLO Yorkdale store in Toronto, Ontario, hosted a collaborative art workshop on Saturday March 22, facilitated by Artolution, an international community-based public arts and education organization. With Artolution’s support and our UNIQLO volunteers, 17 young artists between the ages of 8-15 spent the morning creating designs that reflect the idea of peace to them. All the children’s artwork were then combined into a final collage that represented their collective vision for peace.
Through the Peace For All project, UNIQLO has donated over $12.4 million to international organizations supporting those in need globally. Click here to learn more.
